✦ Synopsis
The applications of the chiral dipyridylphosphine ligand P-Phos and its derivatives Tol-P-Phos and Xyl-P-Phos in Ruand Rh-catalyzed hydrogenations of the methyl esters of a variety of (Z)-2-acetamido-3-arylacrylic acids have been studied systematically. The results show that the electronic and steric properties of these ligands have significant influences on the enantioselectivity of the reduction. Rh and Ru complexes of the same dipyridylphosphine ligand family exhibit different trends in enantioselectivity toward the same substrate.

A new chiral dipyridylphosphine ligand Xyl-P-Phos has been synthesized and the structure of (S)-Xyl-P-Phos oxide has been characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The ruthenium complex of this ligand, Ru(R-Xyl-P-Phos)(C 6 H 6 )Cl 2 , has been found to be a highly active, enantioselective a
