Abstract

Bidentate chiral phosphines are no longer essential for achieving a fast and highly enantioselective hydrogenation of α- or β-dehydroamino acid derivatives. In particular, a readily accessible and stable monodentate phosphoramidite can be highly effective in these asymmetric hydrogenations.
