New chiral diamino-bis(tert-thiophene): an effective ligand for Pd- and Zn-catalyzed asymmetric transformations.
Enantiomerically pure diamino-bis(tert-thiophene) proved to be a valuable and flexible chiral ligand for Pd- and Zn-catalyzed transformations, allowing for high levels of stereocontrol in asymmetric allylic alkylation (ee up to 99%) and hydrosilylations of prochiral carbonyls (ee up to 97%).
