Abstract

A considerable number of efficient asymmetric hydrogenation catalysts based on complexes of rhodium and a chiral bisphosphine have been reported. These are highly effective only on enamide precursors of α-amino acids or other closely related systems capable of chelating with the metal. Examination of x-ray crystal structures of the metal complexes has indicated that all these diverse structures may be working by a common mechanism.
