Abstract
An asymmetric Diels-Alder reaction between phenylvinylsulfone and 1-phenyl- 3,4-dimethylphosphole in the presence of a chiral organometallic reaction p romoter generates the corresponding P-chiral sulfonyl-substituted phosphano rbornene which is found to undergo the facile cycloreversion reaction under mild conditions.
