TL;DR: In this paper, simple stereochemical rules have been found that establish a relationship between product configuration and catalyst or reactant configuration for the two most effective and extensively studied asymmetric reactions, viz., asymmetric hydrogenation of dehydroacylamino acids in the presence of chiral rhodium-phosphine complexes and asymmetric reduction of ketones with chiral hydrides.

TL;DR: In this article, the interaction of Δ2-oxazolin-5-ones, S(−)-α-phenylethy lamine and H2 in the presence of PdCl2 was investigated.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of preparation conditions on the activity and enantioselectivity of asymmetric Cu−Ni catalysts has been studied and two maxima in the dependence of the optical yield on the pH of the modifying solution were shown.

TL;DR: In this article, simple stereochemical rules define the relationship between the prevailing configuration of the product and the bis(diphenylphosphine) complex conformation, and the prevailing product configuration is determined by the complex conformer, the order of substituent priorities and the reaction type.

TL;DR: In this article, the rate of formation of the excess of one enantiomeric product in the enantioselective hydrogenation of EAA and Acac on a Raney copper catalyst modified with chiral aminoacids (AmA) correlates with the formation constants of the mixed complexes [CU EAA AmA] and [Cu acac AmA].
