Abstract
A bis(imidazoline)-phosphoric acid catalyzes an enantioselective hydrophosphonylation of ketimines with phosphine oxides to provide chiral α-quaternary aminophosphorous compounds having a primary amino group in excellent yields and enantioselectivities. Based on experimental results and DFT calculation, transition states were proposed to explain the stereoselectivity of the reaction.
