New Chiral Sulfoxide Ligands Possessing a Phosphano or Phosphanoamino Functionality in Palladium-Catalyzed Asymmetric Allylic Nucleophilic Substitution Reactions
New chiral sulfoxide ligands possessing a phosphano or phosphanoamino functionality as an alternative coordinating element were developed, and their usefulness was demonstrated by applying them to palladium-catalyzedasymmetricallylic nucleophilic substitutionreactions. The structure of the catalyst precursor coordinated by the chiral phosphino sulfoxide was determined by X-ray crystallographic analysis
