Very recently, Heller and co-workers have reported the synthesis of phosphorus-bearing, axially chiral biaryls by cobalt-catalyzed, asymmetric cross-cyclotrimerization, but both yields and ee values are not sufficient, see: Heller, B.; Gutnov, A.; Fischer, C.; Drexler, H.-J.; Spannenberg, A.; Redkin, D.; Sundermann, C.; Sundermann, B. Chem. Eur. J. 2007, 13, 1117.

150. Buchwald and co-workers recently reported that the substituents ortho to the phosphorus center of achiral biaryl monophosphines may lock the ligand into a certain conformation, which plays an important role in the palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions, see: Burgos, C. H.; Barder, T. E.; Huang, X.; Buchwald, S. L. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2006, 45, 4321.
