La presente Tesis Doctoral pretende abordar algunos estudios relacionados con la aplicación de los ligandos P-OP en la hidrogenación de olefinas catalizadas por complejos de rodio. En la primera parte del Capítulo 1 se abordará un estudio sobre las propiedades conformacionales de los ligandos P-OP y su influencia en la reacción catalítica. Este...

A family of modularly designed chiral bis(1,3,2-diazaphospholidines) with N-aryl substituents (NP-PN) is reported. These compounds have been prepared in two steps from readily available (R,R)-1,2-diaminocyclohexane and tetrachlorodiphosphines. Examples in the set differ in the backbone and the aryl substituents, aiming at their application in...

The enantioselective catalytic hydrogenation of N-(3,4-dihydronaphthalen-2- yl) amides (1) with rhodium catalysts bearing phosphine-phosphite ligands 4 has been studied. A wide catalyst screening, facilitated by the modular structure of 4, has found a highly enantioselective catalyst for this reaction. This catalyst gives a 93% ee in the...

Phosphine-phosphites 3a and 3b, derived from diphenylhydroxymethyl phosphine have been prepared. From these ligands [Rh(COD)(3a)]BF4 5a and RuCl2(3b)[(S,S)-DPEN] 6b (DPEN = 1,2-diphenylethylenediamine) were synthesized and their structure determined by X-ray diffraction. Ligands 3 are characterized by a small bite angle of 83°. In addition, 5a...

The catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation of trisubstituted enol esters using Rh catalysts bearing chiral phosphine-phosphite ligands (P-OP) has been studied. Substrates covered comprise α,β-dialkyl, α-alkyl-β-aryl, and α,β-diarylvinyl esters, the corresponding hydrogenation products being suitable precursors to prepare synthetically relevant...
