Abstract

The development of asymmetric catalysts for organic reactions is one of the most challenging subjects in modern science and technology. 1 These catalysts are generally metal complexes bearing chiral and atropisomeric ligands such as BINAP. Through enantio-resolution and synthetic transformation, many enantiopure atropisomeric (atropos in Greek; a = not, tropos = turn) 2 ligands are synthesized and used in catalytic asymmetric reactions. By contrast, we have already ...
