A second-generation catalyst for intermolecular hydroacylation of alkenes and alkynes using beta-S-substituted aldehydes: the role of a hemilabile P-O-P ligand.

(Chemical Equation Presented) Top of the P-O-Ps: Stabilization of a cationic rhodium catalyst with the hemilabile P-O-P ligand dpephos allows efficient intermolecular hydroacylation of challenging substrates (see scheme). Structural studies have established the role of the coordination of the oxygen...
