Phosphines are widely used ligands in transition metal-catalyzed reactions. Arylphosphines, such as triphenylphosphine, were among the first phosphines to show broad utility in catalysis. Beginning in the late 1990s, sterically demanding and electronrich trialkylphosphines began to receive attention as supporting ligands. These ligands were found to be particularly effective at promoting oxidative addition in cross-coupling of aryl halides. With electron-rich, sterically demanding ligands, such as tri-tertbutylphosphine, coupling of aryl bromides could be achieved at room temperature. More importantly, the less reactive, but more broadly available, aryl chlorides became accessible substrates. Tri-tert-butylphosphine has become a privileged ligand that has found application in a wide range of late transition-metal catalyzed coupling reactions. This success has led to the use of numerous monodentate trialkylphosphines in cross-coupling reactions. This review will discuss the general properties and features of monodentate trialkylphosphines and their application in cross-coupling reactions of C–X and C–H bonds.

Our recent progress toward the synthesis of the furanocembranolide lophotoxin (1) is disclosed. Strategies for the stereoselective incorporation of the C13 stereocenter by a catalytic desymmetrization of a cyclic meso-anhydride, as well as a novel 1,6-addition reaction of organocuprates to unsaturated [1,3]dioxin-4-ones are discussed. Preliminary results on the development of a rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric 1,6-addition reaction are also mentioned. Finally, modifications of a previously reported transition-metal-catalyzed cyclization reaction involving α-propargyl β-keto esters allow furan ring formation either under thermal conditions or by microwave irradiation.Key words: 1,6-addition, organocuprates, catalytic desymmetrization, furan cyclization, microwave.
