BINAP - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In organic chemistry, BINAP, an acronym used for 2,2'-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1'-binaphthyl, is an important chiral ligand widely used in asymmetric synthesis. |
 | | Enantioselective organic reactions catalyzed by BINAP complexes using transition metals such as ruthenium, rhodium, and palladium have been reported, with asymmetric hydrogenation catalyzed by Rh- and Ru-BINAP being pioneered by Ryoji Noyori, winner of the 2001 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, and his co-workers. |
