We have recently patented an unprecedented stereospecific N→O phosphinyl migration process which transforms P-chirogenic aminophosphines into phosphinites. A fine design of aminophosphine phosphinite ligands (AMPP*) derived from ephedrine and bearing a Pchirogenic center either at the aminophosphine or phosphinite moiety, was performed. The synthesis of AMPP* ligands with P-chirogenic aminophosphine moiety was based on the well-established stereospecific reaction of oxazaphospholidine-borane with organolithium
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations –citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
