An Isolable Mixed P,S‐Bis(ylide) as an Asymmetric Carbon Atom Source

Abstract

Heart of carbon: The first stable asymmetric bis(ylide), N,N′-(iPr2NCH2CH2NiPr)(Ph)PCSPh2, has been isolated (see picture; C black, N gray). The presence of the two different ligands causes this carbon(0) complex to behave as an asymmetric atomic carbon source.
