Abstract
A new optically active and large dihedral angle atropisomeric P,N ligand, pyphos, which contains a tertiary phosphine and pyridine moiety, was prepared and resolved through diastereomeric complexation with chiral palladium amine complexes. The hexafluorophosphate salt of the diastereomers were found to be separable by fractional recyrstallization, while the corresponding chloride salt did not. [Rh(COD)pyphos]PF(6) complex was synthesized by metalation of pyphos with [Rh(COD)Cl](2) followed by anion exchange with NH(4)PF(6) in excellent yield, and the target rhodium complex was characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. The chiral cationic rhodium complex was utilized in the enantioselective hydroboration of vinylarenes. Excellent regioselectivity and good enantioselectivity were observed, and the ee values were found to be dependent on the electronic properties of para-substituted styrenes.
