“…Carbon−carbon bond formation is also achieved via reactions with carbanion species 5 or carbon-centered radicals . Thus, a wide spectrum of practical applications have been found in the derivatives of alkenylphosphine oxides, including biologically active compounds, fire-retardants, and ligands for homogeneous catalysts. 3d,4b Despite these diverse applications, methods for their preparation are limited . The recently revealed metal-catalyzed addition of P(V)−H bonds to alkynes provided a new clean methodology for the generation of alkenylphosphorus compounds .…”
