“…We could only find one example with D-xylose-derived phosphinite ligands for the asymmetric conjugate addition of organometallic fragments onto enones. 4 Likewise, taddol-or biphenol-based phosphonite ligands have almost exclusively been applied to conjugate additions, 5 but also have been used for the dehydrogenative coupling of hydrosilanes and alcohols. 6 It is important to note that in all examples the active species were generated in situ upon mixing of a copper source and the phosphi(o)nite ligand and that, to the best of our knowledge, no well-defined copper system with these ligands has been applied to catalysis to date.…”
The preparation of novel phosphinite- and phosphonite-bearing
copper(I)
complexes of the general formula [CuX(L)] is reported. These compounds,
which remain scarce in the literature, could be prepared using readily
available starting materials and were spectroscopically and structurally
characterized. These complexes, together with their known phosphine
and phosphite analogues, were then applied to the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition
of azides and alkynes, to find that the new complexes displayed the
best activities. Full optimization of the reaction conditions resulted
in a noteworthy Click catalytic system, active under very mild reaction
conditions in the absence of any additive and using low metal loadings.

“…31). 95 Bidentate sugar-phosphite-oxazoline L148 and phosphitephosphoramidite ligands L149 have been screened in the conjugate addition of trimethyl and triethylaluminium to cyclic and acyclic enones. Ee's up to 80% were obtained using L148 which contains encumbered biaryl phosphite moieties and a phenyl oxazoline group (Fig.…”
A comprehensive overview of recent literature from 2003 concerning advances in enantioselective copper catalysed 1,4-addition of organometallic reagents to alpha,beta-unsaturated compounds is given in this critical review. About 200 ligands and catalysts are presented, with a focus on stereoselectivities, catalyst loading, ligand structure and substrate scope. A major part is devoted to trapping and tandem reactions and a variety of recent synthetic applications are used to illustrate the practicality and current state of the art of 1,4-addition of organometallic reagents. Finally several mechanistic studies are discussed (162 references).
“…When ligand 58c was used in the alkylation with AlEt 3 , 48% ee was obtained. 65 In 2005, Khiar and Ferna´ndez et al 66 disclosed a class of thioglycosides-type P,S chiral ligands 60-62 in which 60-61 derived commercially available galactose pentaacetate and 62 was derived from arabinose tetraacetate, respectively. These ligands were examined in Pd-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation and amination, and 60c gave the best results both in alkylation and amination reactions, and proved the anomeric center of sulfur moiety played a significant role in stereocontrol.…”
Section: Ps-type Ligands With Central Chirality and Their Application...mentioning
This feature article illustrates new concepts and approaches for designing new P,S-mixed donor chelating ligands based on three major types of chiral skeleton, the central, axial and planar chirality. The versatility in structural modification is highlighted. It offers an effective pathway to access scientifically useful chiral ligands of diverse electronic and steric properties for optimization in various catalytic enantioselective transformations. In this article, the applications of these optically active ligands in a variety of asymmetric catalytic reactions will be discussed with reference to updated literature findings as well as the author's original research.
