Monodentate ligands binaphthophosphepine

Good to excellent yields and moderate to good enantioselectivities up to 89% ee were achieved in the hydrogenation of a range of aryl, alkyl, cyclic, heterocyclic, and aliphatic ketones by H2 in the presence of Pr OH and Bu OK using a combination of Cu(OAc)2 and chiral monodentate binaphthophosphepine ligands (213) as the active and selective catalyst. ...
