Highly enantioselective Pd-catalyzed allylic alkylation using new chiral ferrocenylphosphinoimidazolidine ligands.
New ferrocenylphosphinoimidazolidines containing central chirality and planar chirality were found to act as highly effective chiral ligands in Pd-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation of 1,3-diphenyl-2-propenyl acetate with dimethyl malonate.
