Catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation of α-(acetamido)acrylates using TRAP trans-chelating chiral bisphosphine ligands: Remarkable effects of ligand P-substituent and hydrogen pressure on enantioselectivity

The catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation of α-(acetamido)acrylates was carded out with the rhodium complexes prepared from [Rh(cod)₂]BF₄ and trans-chelating chiral bisphosphine ligands, (S,S)-2,2'-bis[(R)-1-(dialkylphosphino)ethyl]-1,1
