A metal-free tandem double hydrophosphination of extended conjugated indandiones has been established. Mechanistic investigations confirmed the consecutive manner of the nucleophilic addition reaction. Complexation of the generated keto-diphosphine resulted in the formation of an unexpected tridentate bridging ligand with an anionic P,O-bidentate and a neutral P-monodentate coordination mode on two palladium units. In the presence of an external chiral auxiliary, the coordinated diphosphines could be separated into their enantiomeric forms.
