Article abstract of DOI:10.1055/s-1997-1004

The chiral cationic rhodium aminophosphine-phosphinite complexes 4-6 were applied successfully in the asymmetric hydrogenation of α- (7-9), β- (10, 11) and γ- (12) aminoketone hydrochloride derivatives leading to the corresponding aminoalcohols in up to 9
