Alkyllithium-activated organoboronic esters are found to undergo stereospecific phosphination with copper chloride and chlorophosphines. They also react with thiolsulfonate electrophiles under copper catalysis. These reactions enable stereospecific phosphination and thiolation of organoboronic esters, which are further applied in preparation of chiral ligands and biologically active molecules.

Amino acid analogues with a phosphorus-containing moiety replacing the carboxylic group are promising sources of biologically active compounds. The -phosphinic group, with hydrogen-phosphorus-carbon (H-P-C) bonds and a flattened tetrahedral configuration, is a bioisostere of the carboxylic group. Consequently, amino--phosphinic acids undergo substrate-like enzymatic transformations, leading to new biologically active metabolites.

Enantioenriched phosphorus(V)-stereogenic compounds, featuring a pentavalent phosphorus atom as the stereogenic center, are crucial in various natural products, drugs, bioactive molecules, and catalysts/ligands. While a handful of stereoselective synthetic approaches have been developed, achieving direct stereocontrol at the phosphorus atom through catalytic generation of phosphorus(V)-heteroatom bonds continues to be a formidable challenge. Here, we disclose an organocatalytic asymmetric condensation strategy that employs a novel activation mode of stable feedstock phosphinic acids by the formation of mixed phosphinic anhydride as the reactive species to facilitate further catalyst-controlled asymmetric P-O bond formations, involving a dynamic kinetic asymmetric transformation (DYKAT) process with alcohol nucleophiles via a cinchonidine-derived bifunctional catalyst.

Functional molecules derived from stereogenic phosphorus centers have important applications in the discovery of drugs and agrochemicals. They are also widely utilized as chiral ligands or organocatalysts for diverse asymmetric transformations. However, access to P-stereogenic motifs has always been regarded as a highly challenging yet desirable goal in organic synthesis.

Herein, we report an l-valine-derived amide phosphine-catalyzed [3+2] cyclization of MBH carbonates and -(2--butylphenyl)maleimides via asymmetric desymmetrization. Bicyclic -aryl succinimide derivatives bearing three continuous chiral centers with a remote C-N atropisomeric chirality were constructed stereospecifically and enantioselectively. A wide variety of MBH carbonates could be employed in this process to deliver highly optically pure succinimide derivatives in moderate to excellent yields.
