Abstract

Abstract : The Front Cover shows the thermal splitting of a 7‐phosphanorbornene ylide, giving a norbornadiene by‐product and a stable 2‐methoxy‐phosphaalkene. The example shown on the cover is the synthesis of an original 1‐phospha‐2‐methoxyacenaphthylidene, which can serve as a potentially general route to phosphaalkenes.
