The synthesis of novel C2-symmetric P,N-chelation ruthenocene ligands and their application in palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic substitution

Novel air-stable C2-symmetric tetrasubstituted ruthenocene-based ligands were readily synthesized and used for palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic substitution showing excellent enantioselectivity and high catalytic activity.
