trans- and cis-2-Methylamino cyclohexanols (MAC) were prepared in enantiomerically pure forms and transformed into O.N-bis(diphenylphosphino) derivatives ("PONP").An analogous trans-1R;2R-aminocyclohexanol PONP could only be isolated in an impure form, whereas the attempted synthesis of PONP's of diastereomeric trans-2-(N-α-phenylethylamino)-cyclohexanols failed.Cationic Rh(I)-chelates of the new PONP's catalyzed the enantioselective hydrogenation of dehydro-α-acylamino acids with /= 97percent ee.A comparison of the enantiodiscriminating properties of the MAC-PONP's with structurally related chiral ligands leads to surprising conclusions.
