Abstract:
1. A method of forming a bond in a chemical reaction comprising catalyzing said reaction with a transition metal catalyst precursor and a compound of formula (I), or a salt thereof, wherein Ar R X is a 6-membered cyclic phosphine of formula (Ia): wherein ring A includes three carbon ring atoms in addition to the phosphorus and 2 carbon ring atoms of formula (Ia); wherein the ring atoms of ring A are each independently optionally substituted with one or more substituents selected from the group consisting of alkenyl; alkoxy; alkoxyalkyl; alkyl; alkylamino; alkylthio; alkynyl; aminoalkyl; N-alkylaminoalkyl; N,N-dialkylaminoalkyl; N,N,N-trialkylammoniumalkyl; arylalkyl optionally substituted with alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, cyano, halo, haloalkyl or haloalkoxy; cycloalkyl optionally substituted with alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, cyano, halo, haloalkyl or haloalkoxy; dialkylamino; halo; haloalkyl; fluoroalkyl; heteroaryl optionally substituted with alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, cyano, halo, haloalkyl or haloalkoxy; heterocycloalkyl optionally substituted with alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, cyano, halo, haloalkyl or haloalkoxy; hydroxy; hydroxyalkyl; oxo; an exocyclic double bond optionally substituted with alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, cycloalkyl, heterocyclyl, or heteroaryl; a 3- to 7-membered spiro ring containing zero, one, or two heteroatoms; phenyl optionally substituted with alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, cyano, halo, haloalkyl or haloalkoxy; L as to R wherein the bond formed in the chemical reaction is selected from the group consisting of a carbon-nitrogen bond, a carbon-oxygen bond, a carbon-carbon bond, a carbon-sulfur bond, a carbon-phosphorus bond, a carbon-boron bond, a carbon-fluorine bond and a carbon-hydrogen bond.
