Organophosphorus Reagents in Catalysis and Beyond

Since the discovery of phosphine in 1783 by Philippe Gengembre, phosphorus reagents and catalysts have become a workhorse in synthetic organic chemistry. Stochiometric phosphine-mediated chemistry is widely used in both industrial and academic settings.  In recent years significant advances have been made in the field of phosphine organocatalysis, including P^III/P^IV redox cycling and catalytic Mitsunobu chemistry. In this webinar we look in detail at both stochiometric and catalytic application of organophosphorus reagents, highlighting resent methodology, examples and large scale applications.
