Abstract

Several new polymer-supported monophosphite ligands have been developed and the rhodium complexes were shown to be highly efficient, highly enantioselective and easily separable catalysts for asymmetric hydrogenation of itaconates, enamides, α-dehydroamino acid derivatives and β-dehydroamino acid derivatives.
