A chiral pyridylphosphine ligand (2R,4R)-2,4-bis[di-3'-(2',6'-dimethoxypyridyl)phosphino]pentane was synthesized. The rhodium catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of 2-(6'-methoxy-2'-naphthyl)propenoic acid was studied by using this ligand in comparison with the structurally similar Skewphos analogs.
