Roman Gerber and Dr. Christian M. Frech Alkyne Hydrothiolation Catalyzed by a Dichlorobis(aminophosphine) Complex of Palladium: Selective Formation of cis-Configured Vinyl Thioethers Chemistry - A European Journal 18

Cis all round: Dichlorobis[1-(dicyclohexylphosphanyl)piperidine]palladium, [(P{(NC5H10)(C6H11)2})2Pd(Cl)2], is a highly efficient alkyne hydrothiolation catalyst and the first generally applicable system that selectively generates cis-configured anti-Markovnikov adducts in excellent yields within only a few minutes at 120 °C in the presence of only 0.05 mol % of the catalyst (see scheme).
