title: Synthesis of new bicyclic P-N ligands and their application in asymmetric Pd-catalyzed pi-allyl alkylation and Heck reaction.
abstract: [structure: see text] The synthesis of phosphine oxazoline ligands based on P-chiral 1-phosphanorbornadienes is reported. The use of these ligands in palladium catalyzed asymmetric allylation and Heck reaction is described.
