摘要

A novel nickel(II)-magnesium-mediated cross-coupling of diphenylphosphine oxide with a variety of 1,1-dibromo-1-alkenes has been developed, which provides a powerful and general methodology for the stereoselective synthesis of various (E)-1-alkenylphosphine oxides or bisphosphine oxides, with operational simplicity of the procedure, good to high yields and broad substrate applicability. Mechanistic studies reveal that the reaction might involve a Hirao reduction, cross-coupling and Michael addition.
