  • Title: Asymmetric hydrogenation of alpha,beta-unsaturated phosphonates with Rh-BisP* and Rh-MiniPHOS catalysts: scope and mechanism of the reaction.
    Author: Gridnev ID, Yasutake M, Imamoto T, Beletskaya IP.
    Journal: Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A; 2004 Apr 13; 101(15):5385-90. PubMed ID: 15024119.
    Abstract:
    Optically active 1,2-bis(alkylmethylphosphino)ethanes and bis(alkylmethylphosphino)methanes are unique diphosphine ligands combining the simple molecular structure and P-stereogenic asymmetric environment. This work shows that these ligands exhibit excellent enantioselectivity in rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of alpha,beta-unsaturated phosphonic acid derivatives. The enantioselective hydrogenation mechanism elucidated by NMR study is also described.
