The Michael addition of selected sulfur and nitrogen nucleophiles to a chiral non-racemic 2-phosphono-2,3-didehydrothiolane S-oxide is fully diastereoselective. The enantiomeric excesses of the adducts obtained could be determined by 31P NMR spectroscopy using (R)-(+)-tert-butyl(phenyl)phosphinothioic acid as a chiral solvating agent. The addition of thiophenol was monitored by 31P NMR spectroscopy which made it possible to observe the formation and evolution of the kinetic and thermodynamic adducts in the reaction mixture. The structures of both enantiomeric thiophenol adducts have been determined by X-ray analysis.
