Novel chiral sulfur-containing ferrocenyl ligands for palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic substitution.
New chiral ferrocenyl ligands having chiral sulfinyl and phosphinyl groups were prepared. The palladium-catalyzed allylic substitution reaction using these chiral ligands showed good enantioselectivity. The mechanism for the asymmetric reaction is proposed on the basis of the stereochemical outcome.
