Abstract

Two enantiopure fluorous phosphines have been conveniently synthesized by combining palladium-catalyzed coupling reactions of easily available binaphthyl building-blocks with the introduction of fluorous ponytails onto aromatic compounds via ether bond formation. These new fluorous chiral phosphines have been tested as ligands in metal-catalyzed asymmetric transformations, the best results being obtained in the palladium-catalyzed ...
