Abstract

AbstractA series of chiral phosphine‐amine‐oxazoline (PAO) ligands with an NH moiety were synthesized and applied to the ruthenium‐catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of N‐phosphinylimines. The ligand bearing phenyl groups at the phosphorus moiety and isopropyl at the oxazoline moiety exhibits good activity and excellent enantioselectivity (up to 99% ee). This catalytic system provides an efficient and mild approach to access enantioriched amines.
