Abstract
Double chloride abstraction from [RuCl2 (PNNP)] [PNNP = (S ,S )-N ,N ′-bis[o -(diphenylphosphino)benzylidene]cyclohexane-1,2-diamine] gives
the elusive dicationic adduct [Ru(OEt)2 (PNNP)]²+ which
catalyzes the [2+2] cycloaddition of
cyclic alkylidene β-keto esters with a variety of ynamides
to produce bicyclo[3.2.0]heptane-based enamides
with high yields and enantioselectivity. The structural
features of these products are discussed and selected examples are
converted into highly modular diene, phosphite-alkene, and diphosphite
derivatives, which were tested as bidentate ligands with Rh(I),
Ir(I), and Pd(II).
Key words
asymmetric catalysis - biaryls - cycloaddition - bicyclic compounds - ligands - phosphorus - ruthenium

on Ph2 PCl with 6a and Et3 N
or NaH as a base were attempted. However, no conversion was detected
by TLC and, after aqueous workup, by NMR after 24 h at r.t.

26 X-ray crystallography: CCDC-856610
contains the supplementary crystallographic data for this paper.
These data can be obtained free of charge at http://www.ccdc.cam.ac.uk/conts/retrieving.html [or

product 5p was enantiomerically enriched
(74% ee), 8d crystallized from
hot hexane as a racemate in the centrosymmetric P 21 /c space group. See the Supporting Information
for selected distances and angles.
27a At difference, P,P-coupling has been observed in other diphosphites
featuring inequivalent P-donors,²7b which has been
interpreted as through-space coupling
