19. The phosphine does react with cyclic peroxides; reaction with saturated epiperoxides produces the diols, whereas reaction with 2,3-unsaturated 1,4-epiperoxides affords 1,3-diene 1,2-epoxides: see Clennan, E. L.; Heah, P. C. J. Org. Chem. 1981, 46, 4105. However, under the present catalytic conditions, it does not participate in the product formation to any great extent.
