2] Paracyclophane offers an exciting framework for the synthesis of planar chiral
phosphines. Its rigid structure and unusual electronic properties have led to the …

A new class of chiral amidine-phosphine hybrid ligands 7a, b, which are readily accessible
from the corresponding α-amino acids, were developed. A versatility for construction of new …

Chiral 1, 2-bis [tris (dimethylamino) phosphinimino] cyclohexane (7a, 80% yield), 1, 2-bis
[tris (dimethylamino) phosphinimino]-1, 2-diphenylethane (7b, 74% yield), 1, 2-bis …

Cinchonidine and cinchonine have been grafted onto pure silica MCM-41. It has been
shown that both supported alkaloids are active catalysts for the Michael addition of ethyl 2 …

Work toward the development of a bis-phosphine ligand system for the palladium-catalyzed
desymmetrization of meso-diols is reported. A parallel approach using phosphine …

Chiral tertiary dichloromethylcarbinol derivatives, prepared by stereospecific α C–H insertion
reaction of dichlorocarbene with protected chiral secondary alcohols, were converted into …

Stereospecific a C–H insertion reaction of protected chiral 1, 2-glycols,(S)-1, 2-
isopropylidenedioxytridecane (3) and ethyl (S)-4, 5-isopropylidenedioxy-pentanoate (4) …

Substituent effects on the enantioselectivity for the lipase-catalyzed esterifications in organic
solvents were studied by use of 2-(4-substituted phenoxy) propionic acids as the substrates …
