Abstract
Excellent enantioselectivities (ee >99%) and good activities (TOF >1200 h−1) are achieved under mild reaction conditions in the Rh-catalyzed hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid derivatives with the first family of phosphine–phosphite ligands containing a sugar backbone; these ligands are better than their diphosphine, diphosphite and phosphinite analogues.Keywords
