Abstract
The secondary phosphine oxide, t -BuPhHP=O,
the most prominent chiral member of this compound class, has been
resolved in high yield and with excellent ee. This resolution discloses
an efficient route to enantiopure phosphorus compounds.
Key words
secondary phosphine oxide - phosphinous acid - asymmetric
catalysis - resolution - chiral ligand - P-chiral
compounds
