Journal ArticleDOI
Asymmetric Synthesis of Triarylmethanes by Rhodium-Catalyzed Enantioselective Arylation of Diarylmethylamines with Arylboroxines.
TL;DR: The reaction of racemic diarylmethylamines with arylboroxines in the presence of a chiral diene-rhodium catalyst gave high yields of chiral triarylmethanes with high enantioselectivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Asymmetric Synthesis of P-Stereogenic Diarylphosphinites by Palladium-Catalyzed Enantioselective Addition of Diarylphosphines to Benzoquinones
TL;DR: The reaction of phenyl(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)phosphine with a substituted benzoquinone in the presence of a chiral phosphapalladacycle complex as a catalyst and triethylamine in chloroform proceeded in a new type of addition manner to give a high yield of a 4-hydroxyphenyl phenyl-phosphinite with 98% enantioselectivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Asymmetric Conjugate Alkynylation of Cyclic α,β‐Unsaturated Carbonyl Compounds with a Chiral Diene Rhodium Catalyst
TL;DR: Asymmetric conjugate alkynylation of cyclic α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds (ketones, esters, and amides) was realized by use of diphenyl[(triisopropylsilyl)ethynyl]methanol as an alkynyating reagent in the presence of a rhodium catalyst coordinated with a new chiral diene ligand.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enantioselective addition of diphenylphosphine to 3-methyl-4-nitro-5-alkenylisoxazoles
TL;DR: An enantioselective Michael addition reaction of diphenylphosphine to substituted alkenylisoxazole has been developed, providing a hitherto unavailable direct access to a library of chiral tertiary phosphine-functionalized isoxazoles.

TL;DR: The first asymmetric phospha-Michael addition of diarylphosphines to N-enoyl phthalimides has been developed in the presence of a chiral palladacycle catalyst and a library of free chiral tertiary phosphine adducts were directly obtained with excellent yields and enantioselectivities.
