Significance
The authors reported the asymmetric conjugate addition of diarylphosphines to sulfonic esters catalyzed by a pincer–palladium complex. In the presence of an electron-withdrawing group in the sulfonic esters, phosphine sulfonates were obtained in high yields.

Comment
Introducing of heteroatoms into phosphine compounds is interesting since they can be used as ligands in metal-catalyzed transformations. Using this system, a highly enantioselective synthesis of phosphine sulfonates was achieved. The transformation of the product into the palladium complex was also demonstrated.
