Corey - Bakshi - Shibata (CBS) reduction of the 1,1'-diacylmetallocenes 5 and 7 provides the C-2-symmetrical diols 4 and 10, which proved to be useful starting materials for stereo-controlled ligand synthesis. Diols 4 and 10 can be easily converted to a wide range of diamines, diphosphines, and dithioacetates by nucleophilic substitution of the hydroxyl function with full retention of configuration. Furthermore, the aminophosphines 30 and 31 become easily accessible. Compounds 30 and 31 have been used as ligands in enantioselective cross-coupling of racemic secondary Grignard reagents with vinyl bromides, A selectivity up to 93% ee could be reached for the first time in the preparation of (S)-(E)-1,3-diphenyl-1-butene (34b), which was transformed into the enantiomerically pure chiral building block 37 with a pseudoasymmetric center in a straightforward, three-step synthesis.
