Abstract

Chiral organophosphorus compounds have been found to act as catalysts in numerous enantioselective reactions. This review highlights recent developments in this area and more precisely in the kinetic resolution of secondary alcohols, the enantioselective borane reduction of ketones, and in the asymmetric C-C bond formation with the introduction of asymmetric two-center catalysts.
