摘要

A new BIPHEP-type ligand with phenyl groups at the 3, 3′-positions, o-Ph-MeO-BIPHEP 3 was prepared. This ligand afforded excellent enantioselectivities when used in the Rh- catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of α-dehydroamino acid derivatives. The strong influence of o-phenyl groups of the ligand on the enantioselectivities of the reaction has been demonstrated by a comparison with its parent ligand MeO-BIPHEP.
