Abstract

Catalysis is an important tool for organic synthesis. Despite frequent breakthroughs, there is still a need for new ligands and catalysts. Among the numerous ligands, phosphine-type ligands stand out. And within these are the ligands bearing chirality on phosphorus, which have great potential but are challenging to synthesise. In our group we have developed an efficient synthesis for different chiral phosphorous synthons and from these, we designed several ligands (SIP, MaxPHOS, MaxPHOX). Coordination to different metals has given rise to catalysts that afford excellent results in catalytic reactions such as cycloadditions or asymmetric hydrogenations.
