The pincer catalysed asymmetric P–H addition of diphenylphosphine to 3-benzylidene-2,4-pentadione is herein reported. Albeit successful in catalysing a series of similar substrates, unexpected chelation of the dione substrate to a CP and CN palladacycle catalyst resulted in inactivation of the catal...
