Abstract

Enantioselective syntheses O 0031Highly Efficient and Versatile Phosphine-Phosphoramidite Ligands for Asymmetric Hydrogenation. -The novel ligands possessing two elements of chirality are found to be unique in providing excellent enantioselectivities for hydrogenations of C=C, C=O, and C=N double bonds in combination with three different transitions metals (rhodium, ruthenium, and iridium). -(EGGENSTEIN, M.; THOMAS, A.; THEUERKAUF, J.; FRANCIO*, G.; LEITNER, W.; Adv.
