Chemical Properties
white to off-white crystalline powder
Uses
(
S)-QUINAP can be used as a ligand:
- In the asymmetric hydrosilylation of alkyl and α, β-unsaturated ketones in the presence of Fe(OAc)2.??????
- For the synthesis of chiral organoboron compounds by copper-catalyzed β-borylation of α,β-unsaturated esters.
[Ir(cod)Cl]
2 treated with ligand (
S)-QUINAP forms an iridium complex. This complex is used as a catalyst for the enantioselective hydrogenation of olefins. (
S)-QUINAP–Rh complex can be employed as a catalyst in enantioselective hydroboration/oxidation of perfluoroalkenes.
General Description
(
S)-QUINAP is a bidentate ligand used in catalytic asymmetric hydroboration, hydrogenation, oxidation, and allylic alkylation reactions.
