(R,R)-TsDPEN is the enantiomeric form of (S,S)-TsDPEN, providing complementary stereochemical outcomes in ruthenium-catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of prochiral ketones and imines. It is the ligand of choice for producing (R)-configured chiral alcohols and amines.

Applications

  • Asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of ketones (Ru)
  • ATH of imines to (R)-chiral amines
  • Pharmaceutical intermediate production
  • Synthesis of (R)-1-phenylethanol derivatives
