“…Chlorophosphite, 1 was synthesized previously from thiobis(2,2 0 -naphthol) and PCl 3 [9d]. The metal precursors [Ru(g 6 -cymene)(l-Cl)Cl] 2 [15], [Rh(CO) 2 -Cl] 2 [16], M(COD)Cl 2 (M = Pd, Pt) [17], Pd(COD)MeCl [18], [Pd(g 3 -C 3 H 5 )Cl] 2 [19] and AuCl(SMe 2 ) [20] were prepared according to the published procedures. Other reagents were used as obtained from commercial sources.…”
