Abstract

[formula: see text] Platinum and palladium chiral bisphosphine complexes and their counterion effects in asymmetric Diels-Alder reactions have been investigated. The reaction of cyclopentadiene and various bidentate dienophiles in the presence of a catalytic amount of Pt(II)- or Pd(II)-BINAP complex proceeds with excellent endo/exo selectivity as well as endo enantioselectivity (up to 99% ee).
