PENTOSE AMIDOPHOSPHITES. SYNTHESIS, PALLADIUM COMPLEXES

Glycoamidophosphites in the pentose series have been synthesized based on 2,3-O-isopropylidene-β-methyl-D-ribofuranoside, 1,2-O-isopropylidene-α-D-xylofuranose, xylitane and 3,5-O-isopropylidenexylitane. Some of these compounds are used as ligands for the synthesis of the palladium complexes. Consideration is given to the behavior of these complexes as catalysts in the asymmetric hydrogenation of itaconic acid.
