Novel asymmetric phosphine ligand

摘要

A phosphine compound having excellent properties (chemical selectivity, enantioselectivity, catalytic activity) as a catalyst for asymmetric syntheses, especially asymmetric hydrogenations. A phosphine-phospholane compound represented by the following formula (1): a phosphine-primary phosphine intermediate; a transition metal complex including the phosphine-phospholane compound of formula (1) and a transition metal, and a catalyst including the transition metal complex.
