Chiral phosphine ligands derived from chiral natural products including D-mannitol and tartaric acid. The ligands contain one or more 5-membered phospholane rings with multiple chiral centers, and provide high stereoselectivity in asymmetric reactions.
Strategies for protection and deprotection of OH-groups in the presence of phosphines have been explored. Rate acceleration in the Baylis-Hillman reaction was observed when a hydroxyl phosphine was used as the catalyst. Rhodium complexes with chiral bisphospholanes are highly enantioselective catalysts for the asymmetrichydrogenation of various kinds of functionalized olefins such as dehydroamino

Two different protocols for the preparation of water-soluble, enantiomerically pure polyhydroxybisphospholanes from acid-labile acetal and tert-butyldimethylsilyl-protected derivatives are reported. These procedures circumvent two of the commonly encountered limitations in the synthesis of these potentially important ligands: (a) formation of phosphonium salts from the highly basic phosphine under acidic conditions, and (b) the need to start with preformed, fully protected cationic metal complex. Thus, cationic Rh complexes of these ligands have been prepared in a separate step, and they have been found to be excellent catalysts for organic and aqueous phase hydrogenation of dehydroamino acids. The viability of catalyst recovery has been demonstrated in three different systems, including two cases where > 99% ee can be achieved under recycling conditions.
