The reaction of benzothiadiphosphole 1 with an equimolar mixture of R 1MgBr and R2MgBr gave intermediate A′, which, after only 4-5 min, was treated with an equimolar amount of R3MgBr, giving the asymmetric phosphine PR1R2R3 in 45% overall yield (75-80% yield when R1 = R2 and 85-90% yield when R1 = R2 = R3) and the byproduct 6 in 90% yield. The treatment of 6 with PCl3 quantitatively regenerates the starting reagent 1. Treatment of the phosphines with elemental sulfur gave the corresponding sulfides.
