Preparation of chiral EC(sp3)E’ phosphine-based mono- and di-nuclear palladium pincer complexes

Ten enantiopure Pd pincer complexes with aliphatic and unsymmetrical characteristics have been synthesized efficiently. Chirality on the ligand backbone was introduced via an asymmetric H-P bond addition reaction by two structurally-dissimilar catalysts with >99% ee’s. Challenging C(sp3)-H bond a...
