Abstract
Chiral diphosphines derived from Diop and BPPM and bearing a phenylcyclohex ylphosphinogroup and a diphenylphosphinogroup were prepared. These ligands, and especially the BPPM analog, in association with rhodium complexes, exh ibited high enantioselectivities, up to 93%, and activities in the reductio n of various unsaturated substrates although they were used as a mixture 50 /50 of two epimers.
