Asymmetric homogeneous hydrogenation of olefinic compounds using a rhodium catalyst with chiral phosphine ligands
The hydridorhodium(I)phosphine complex HRh(diop)₂ [(+)-diop = (+)-2,3,-0-isopropylidene-2,3-dihydroxy-1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane] has been studied for catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation of a number of olefinic substrates. Certain olefinic carboxylic acids have been reduced to products with up...
