Abstract
Excellent enantioselectivities (ee > 99%) and good activities (TOF > 1200 h (-1)) are achieved under mild reaction conditions in the Rh-catalyzed hydro genation of alpha,beta -unsaturated carboxylic acid derivatives with the fi rst family of phosphine-phosphite ligands containing a sugar backbone; thes e ligands are better than their diphosphine, diphosphite and phosphinite an alogues.
