Chiral phosphines have been widely used to prepare low-valent transition metal complexe catalysts for enantioselective organic transformations. In many studies, catalytic processes for asym metric C-H induction give almost quantitative optical yields (1). Several approaches have been envisaged in the preparation of chiral phosphines : (i) The phosphorus atom is the chiral center (2). (ii) The diphenylphosphino groups are connected by a chiral link (3). (iii) Asymmetric centers are located both on phosphorus atom and organic chain (4). Often the chiral phosphine is the chelating diphosphine to decrease conformational mobility (5). Asymmetric C-C bond forming reactions are of great significance for the synthesis of optically active compounds (6), however the use of chiral transition metal catalysts for such reactions has been much less successful (1). We describe in this work the syn thesis of chiral aminophosphines obtained from natural amino acids. This synthetic approach allows the synthesis of mono bi and multidentate chiral ligands in which two achiral phosphorus centers are connected by a chiral link. These ligands can be used in the asymmetric codimerization of cyclohexa-1,3-diene with ethylene catalysed by nickel complexes (7). Synthesis of chiral aminophosphines from natural aminoacids. Chiral aminoacids were generally used for configurational correlation and more recently for reagent preparation in order to induce asymmetric synthesis (8). Several chiral Ν and N,N subs tituted diamines, diamino alcohols and acylphosphide are readily obtained from aminoacids by a method outlined in the scheme I. Among the different known methods of peptide bond formation (9) only the azide one is appropriate to the coupling step when the amino protecting group is an acetyl or a formyl. Chiral starting materials were the N-formyl and the N-acetyl methyl esters of optically pure amino acids : (R)-phenylglycine Rj = Ph, (S)-phenylalanine R=PhCH (S)-Methionine Rj= CH CH SMe, (S)-valine Ri=(CH ) CH, etc. The activated azide compounds(2) were prepared as generally described via hydrazides f

C a t a l y t i c r e a c t i o n s i n which an asymmetric carbon i s created have been l e s s i n t e n s e l y s t u d i e d than asymmetric hydrogénation(J_) . Before e n a n t i o s e l e c t i v i t y a n a l y s i s , we endeavored to increase the r e g i o s e l e c t i v i t y of the expected products. For instance by v a r y i n g the nature of the s u b s t i t u e n t s (R may be a l k y l or a r y l ) at the n i t r o g e n atom of the ligands PI12PNR1R2 a v a r i a t i o n i n r e g i o s e l e c t i v i t y to normal and branched aldehyde was observed during hydrof o r m y l a t i o n of 1-hexene with (PPh2NRjR2>2 c a t a l y s t s ( 1_0) . A good c o r r e l a t i o n has been shown between the acceptor p r o p e r t i e s of the aminophosphine ligands and the s e l e c t i v i t y f o r l i n e a r aldehyde formation. Recently i t has been reported that c h i r a l aminophosphines presented a high e n a n t i o s e l e c t i v i t y i n c a t a l y t i c hydrog e n t a t i o n (11) . We have a l s o observed i n t e r e s t i n g r e s u l t s i n r e g i o and e n a n t i o s e l e c t i v i t y i n the asymmetric c o d i m e r i z a t i o n of cyclohexa-1,3 diene with ethylene c a t a l y s e d by c h i r a l aminophosphine n i c k e l complexes ( 7 ) , (Scheme I V ) . O p t i m i z a t i o n of the c a t a l y t i c system (-70°C, aminophosphine/Ni=10) gave (+)-(S)-3-vinylcyclohexene with 73,5% o p t i c a l p u r i t y i n 87% chemical y i e l d when (-)-R-N-methy1-N-(1-phenyl-1-ethylamino)diphenylphosphine was used.
