Description

(R)-(+)-2-Diphenylphosphino-2'-methoxy-1,1'-binaphthyl is an organosilicon compound that is used as a catalyst in organic synthesis. The (R)-(+)-enantiomer of this compound is soluble in chloroform and benzene. It is also soluble in ethers, but not in esters or ketones. It reacts with carbonyl groups to form the corresponding enol phosphonates. This reaction proceeds via a zirconium intermediate, which undergoes chloride elimination to generate the enol phosphonate product. The (R)-(+)-enantiomer hydrolyzes amines to form the corresponding nitrosoamine and reductive elimination products. The (S)-(-)-enantiomer does not show these properties, making it useful for asymmetric synthesis.
