  • Phosphine Borane Compounds Comprising Imidazol Groups And Method For Producing Phosphine Borane Compounds Comprising Imidazol Groups
    Publication number: 20120190806
    Abstract: The present invention relates to imidazolo-containing phosphinoborane compounds, to optically active ligands prepared using them, to transition metal complexes which comprise such ligands, and to catalysts which comprise such transition metal complexes. The present invention further relates to the particular processes for preparing the phosphinoborane compounds, the optically active ligands, the transition metal complexes and the catalysts, and to the use of the catalysts for organic transformation reactions. The present invention further relates to a process for preparing optically active ligands comprising imidazolo-containing phosphorus compounds using imidazolo-containing phosphinoborane compounds.

  • Method for enantioselective synthesis of phosphorus-stereogenic phosphines
    Patent number: 8193392
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing an enantioenriched phosphorus-stereogenic, tertiary phosphine. Secondary phosphines are contacted with an alkyl halide and base in the presence of a chiral metal catalyst thereby producing the enantioenriched phosphorus-stereogenic, tertiary phosphine for subsequent use in homogeneous catalysis reactions.
    Type: Grant
