Abstract

The synthesis of novel chiral tri- and bidentate phosphites 2, 5, 6 and 8, derived from incompletely condensed silsesquioxane backbones and binaphthol, is described. These compounds can be obtained in good yield and are characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and elemental analyses. The complexation with [Rh(cod)2]BF4 has been studied for all bidentate ligands. These nanosized ligands have been applied in the rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydroformylation of vinyl acetate and in the rhodium-catalyzed hydrogenation of methyl-(Z)-2-acetamidocinnamate.
