Popis: Several ferrocene-based aminophosphine ligands have been prepared and shown to be effective in the Ru(II)-catalysed asymmetric hydrogenation of ketones. The enantioselectivity is mainly determined by the carbon-centred chirality of the ligands but the planar chirality is also important such that ( R C , S Fc )- or ( S C , R Fc )- are the matched chiralities.
