Abstract
The review describes preparation of P,N-bidentate ligands without a P–N bond and their use in asymmetric catalysis. Diverse types of aminophosphines are considered with emphasis on P,N-ferrocene ligands, phosphino-oxazolines and phosphinopyridines. The following major synthetic approaches to aminophosphines and related compounds are summarized: (i) via lithiation, (ii) the use of Grignard reagents, (iii) nucleophilic substitution using metal phosphides, (iv) Staudinger method, (v) hydrophosphination of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, (vi) Cu- and Pd-catalyzed C–P bond formation reactions, and (vii) reactions of cyclopalladated complexes with metal phosphides and HPPh2. Highlights of aminophosphine applications in asymmetric synthesis include their use in hydrogenation, hydrosilylation, and hydroboration reactions as well as in various transformations leading to a C–C bond formation such as Suzuki coupling, Meerwein-Eschenmoser-Claisen rearrangement, Mukaiyama aldol reaction, Tsuji allylation and ethylene oligomerization.
Keywords: C–P bond formation reactions, P, N-bidentate ligands, Aminophosphines, Ferrocene-based aminophosphines, Phosphinooxazolines, phosphinopyridines

Porphyrazine, its Analogues and Their Metalcomplexes: Theoretical Consideration and Experimental Data
Porphyrazines are specific analogues of porphyrins – macrocyclic compounds with tetrapyrrole macrocycles, which are key components of a number of natural compounds, in particular chlorophyll and heme, playing a decisive role in the processes of reversible transfer of oxygen molecules in living organisms. They differ from porphyrins in that their ...read more
Recent Advances in Catalytic Hydrogenations for Organic Syntheses
Catalytic hydrogenation is a typical reduction method in the fine chemical industry (e.g. pharmaceutical industry) for producing important and valuable organic chemicals. It can be realized in both heterogeneous and homogeneous ways, but different selectivity (chemo-, regio- or stereoselectivity) problems can arise in case of more reducible functional groups. In ...read more
