Abstract

Abstract New chiral ferrocenylphosphines containing an imino group on the side chain, (S)-N-alkylidene-1-[(R)-2-diphenylphosphinoferrocenyl]ethylamines, were prepared by condensation of (S)-1-[(R)-2-diphenylphosphinoferrocenyl]ethylamine with aromatic aldehydes. The imino-phosphine ligands were found to be very effective for rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrosilylation of prochiral ketones with diphenylsilane to give optically active alcohols of up to 90% ee.
