Abstract
The atroposelective synthesis of PINAP ligands has been accomplished via a palladium‐catalyzed C−P coupling process through dynamic kinetic asymmetric transformation. These catalytic conditions allow access to a wide variety of alkoxy‐ and benzyloxy‐substituted PINAP ligands in high enantiomeric excess. The methods described in this communication afford valuable P,N ligands in good yields and high enantioselectivity using low catalyst loading
