Abstract

The application of the bidentate, electron-rich bisphosphine ligand, 1,3-bis(dicyclohexyl)phosphine-propane (dcpp), in rhodium(I)-catalyzed intermolecular ketone hydroacylation is herein described. Isatins and α-keto amides are shown to undergo hydroacylation with a variety of non-chelating linear and branched aliphatic aldehydes. Also reported is the synthesis of new bidentate chiral phosphine ligands, and their application in hydroacylation is discussed.

Keywords: P ligands; asymmetric catalysis; hydroacylation; ketone; rhodium.
