Abstract

ABSTRACTChiral phosphine-phosphoramidite ligands, featuring ready availability, easy modification, and stability towards air and moisture, have recently emerged as a new kind of robust ligands for asymmetric catalysis. They have been found to display wide utilities in various catalytic asymmetric reactions, giving excellent enantioselectivities in the Rh-, Ru-, and Ir-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of C˭C, C˭O, and C˭N double bonds; Rh-catalyzed asymmetric hydroformylation; Pd-catalyzed asymmetric hydrophosphorylation; Pd-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation; Ag-catalyzed asymmetric [3 + 2] cycloaddition; and Cu-catalyzed conjugate addition and reduction. In this review, the progress on the development of chiral phosphine-phosphoramidite ligands in asymmetric catalysis has been summarized.
