Moreover, when we employed aryl iodides with a free amino ( B 26 b ) or hydroxy group ( B 27 b ) at the I para i -position of the aryl ring, P-chiral phosphinates were obtained in moderate yields (71 and 68%) and high ee values (88 and 81% ee). [41] However, we found aryl iodides with different electronic properties all gave the corresponding P-chiral phosphinates with moderate to high ee values (62-82% ee); in other words, the enantioselectivity was only slightly affected by the electronic properties of the aryl iodides. During the preparation of our manuscript, Duan and our group separately reported Ni(0)-catalyzed intermolecular reactions of nonactivated aryl halides [39] and Ni(II)-catalyzed intermolecular reactions of heterocyclic halides, [40] respectively.
