The rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of 2-substituted N-protected-indoles using monodentate phosphoramidites as ligands was examined. Full conversion and 74% ee, were obtained with a catalyst based on PipPhos. The use of a catalytic amount of base is necessary for activity; best results were obtained with Cs 2 CO 3 .
