This review describes the main synthetic methodologies available for the preparation of P-
stereogenic phosphines and derivatives. The literature coverage focuses in the last ten …

P-stereogenic ligands were among the first to be used in asymmetric catalysis but synthetic
difficulties and prejudices have hampered their development. However, continuous …

An overview of chiral reagents that are used to assign the absolute configuration of
particular classes of compounds using NMR spectroscopy is presented. The use of chiral …

In recent years, research in organophosphorus chemistry has mainly focused in designing
