Abstract The first example of an enantioselective hydrophosphination reaction of ethenesulfonyl fluoride derivatives catalyzed by a phosphapalladacycle afforded chiral sulfonyl fluoride-derived phosphines in quantitative yields and enantioselectivities of up to 93% ee. Investigations revealed the importance of adjacent vacant sites within the active metal center for intramolecular nucleophilic attack to provide the functionalized phosphine.
