Abstract
An efficient acid-catalyzed direct coupling of a wide range of unprotected 2,3-allenols with arylphosphine oxides provides structurally diverse γ-ketophosphine oxides with remarkable functional group tolerance and complete atom-economy under metal- and additive-free conditions. Mechanistic studies showed that this transformation involved a rearrangement and a phospha-Michael reaction.
