Xantphos is an organophosphorus compound derived from the heterocycle xanthene. It is used as a bidentate ligand and is noteworthy for having a particularly wide bite angle. Such ligands are useful in the hydroformylation of alkenes. [cite journal | author = Piet W. N. M. van Leeuwen, Paul C. J. Kamer, Joost N. H. Reek, and Peter Dierkes | title = Ligand Bite Angle Effects in Metal-catalyzed C-C Bond Formation | year = 2000 | journal = Chemical Reviews | volume = 100 | issue = | pages = 2741–2769 | doi = 10.1021/cr9902704] Illustrative of its wide bite angle, it forms both cis and trans adducts of platinum(II) chloride. A related bidentate ligand with a greater bite angle is spanphos.

The ligand is prepared by double directed lithiation of 9,9-dimethylxanthene with sec-butyllithium followed by treatment with chlorodiphenylphosphine.
