Abstract
(2-Furyl)phenyl(2-pyridyl)phosphine has been synthesised by reaction of 2-f uryllithium with chlorophenyl(2-pyridyl)phosphine. The new ligand in combin ation with Pd(OAc)(2) and methanesulphonic acid provides a catalytic system highly active in the alkoxycarbonylation of terminal alkynes. The catalyti c activity of the system depends on both the metal to ligand and metal to a cid ratios. The new ligand seems to be more efficient than the widely used (2-pyridyl)diphenylphosphine.
