Abstract
Catalytic asymmetric conjugate reaction stands out as one of the most useful synthetic tools for the preparation of chiral compounds although its application to the synthesis of chiral azaarenes has been scarcely investigated till now (Ad. Synth. Catal. 2020, 362, 3142). Starting from the established expertise gained in my research group in the synthesis of chiral phosphine ligands and their application in homogeneous catalysis (Inorg. Chem. 2021, 60(5), 976; Catalysts 2020, 10(8), 914) we prepared a novel chiral phosphorus ligand, called (R,R)-EPHOS, designed and synthesized starting from the optically active 1,4-(E)-2-butene. Its cis analogue, called (R,R)-ZEDPHOS had been already successfully employed in the enantioselective reduction of carbonyl groups affording satisfactory enantioselectivity. This new diphosphine features a stereogenic sp3 carbon atom combined to the presence of a C2 axial chirality, the one featuring the atropoisomeric diphosphines.
