A monophosphine–olefin was synthesised from a 2,2′-bridged 1,1′-binaphthyl precursor, which served as a chiral bidentate ligand in the Rh catalysed 1,4-additions of arylboronic acids to cycloalkenones and 5,6-dihydro-2H-pyran-2-one. Fair yields (64–88%) and high asymmetric inductions (88–98% ee) have been obtained. The crystal structure of a corresponding cationic Rh(I) complex was determined.
