Abstract
A C-2 symmetric tridentate ligand, (1R, 1R') 2,6-Bis[1-(diphenylphosph ino)ethyl]pyridine, has been synthesized in enantiomerically pure form . A practical method to synthesize a variety of chiral pyridyl diols i s reported. Asymmetric transfer hydrogenation is achieved using the tr identate ligand.
