Abstract
The construction of a novel class of amino-phosphite/phosphinite/phosphine ligands containing a protected pyrrolidine-3,4-diol moiety is presented. These ligands are obtained from readily available sugars. They thus contain the advantages of carbohydrates in terms of selection of the stereogenic carbons, polyfunctional groups able to modulate the electronic and steric properties, and the general good stability of carbohydrate derivatives. They constitute a novel class of P,N-ligands that have been used in the enantioselective allylic substitutions of acyclic and cyclic substrates with varied electronic and steric requirements, using different C- and N-nucleophiles, with high enantioselectivities. Among the three groups of P,N-ligands (amino-P; P = phosphite, phosphinite, and phosphine groups) the new amino-phosphite ligands give the widest substrate and nucleophile scope, including the more challenging hindered linear and cyclic substrates. In particular, for carbohydrate-derived amino-phosphite ligands a...
