A series of chiral phosphite-type ligands with pyrrolidine moieties was syn
thesised. The compounds form chelate complexes upon reaction with [Rh(CO)(2
)Cl](2). The new ligands were tested in Pd-catalysed enantioselective allyl
ic alkylation giving up to 61% ee under standard conditions. (C) 2001 Elsev
