AbstractAn iron(III)‐Schiff base‐catalyzed, highly enantioselective hydrophosphonylation of various aldehydes is described. Under the optimized reaction conditions, 5 mol% of the iron/camphor‐based tridentate Schiff base complex [FeCl(SBAIB‐d)]2 produces high yields (up to 99%) of α‐hydroxy phosphonates in excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99%). The merits of this catalytic system are an easily synthesizable catalyst, inexpensive starting materials, practically simple aerobic reaction conditions, and low catalyst loading (5 mol%).magnified image
