A Pd-catalyzed dehydrogenative phosphorylation of thiols is developed. A variety of thiols dehydrogenatively couple readily with all three kinds of P(O)-H compounds, i.e., H-phosphonates, H-phosphinates, and secondary phosphine oxides, providing a general access to the valuable phosphorothioates including the P-chiral compounds. A plausible mechanism is proposed.
