Functional Phosphine Derivatives Having Stationary and Flexible Chiralities: Their Preparation and Chirality Controlling

Various functional secondary and tertiary phosphines, or their derivatives, containing stationary chiral phosphorus and flexible chiral axis were prepared, which could be further modified to afford diversely chelating ligands. The flexible axial chirality was fixed by stereogenic phosphorus via a cyclic linkage of chemical bonds or coordination with a metallic ion.
