Abstract
Phosphines having two aryl groups and one alkyl-substituted cycloalkyl group bonded to a phosphorus atom are formed by reacting an alkali metal diarylphosphide with a monoalkyl- or polyalkyl-substituted cycloalkyl mesylate or tosylate in which an alkyl group is in the 2-position, in a liquid reaction medium in which these reactants are soluble. This process avoids complications associated with prior known process technology for producing such phosphines. The phosphines are useful as ligands for making noble metal catalysts.
