SPhos is a phosphine ligand derived from biphenyl. Its palladium complexes exhibit high activity for Suzuki coupling reactions involving aryl chlorides, which are unreactive with palladium complexes of most other phosphine ligands.[1] The ligand has convenient handling characteristics since it is air-stable.[2]
