Abstract

The new chiral bidentate phosphine ligand (R)-1, 2-bis (diphenylphosphino)-l- cyclohexylethane ((R)-Cycphos) has been prepared. The rhodium (1) cationic complex of this phosphine serves as an effective homogeneous asymmetric hydrogenation catalyst for the reduction of (2)-a-amidoacrylic acids at ambient temperature and pressure. Optical yields for the corresponding (S)-a-amino acid derivatives that are produced are generally ...
