Abstract :
Ruthenium complexes of phosphinoferrocenylaminophosphine ligands (BoPhoz™ ligands) have been prepared by combining the ligands with tris(triphenylphosphine)ruthenium dichloride and precipitating the complexes. The optimal species exhibit high enantioselectivities for the asymmetric hydrogenation of functionalized ketones, particularly β-ketoesters.
