Both PC-cyclometalated and PCP-pincer type palladium catalysts have recently been found to be robust and efficacious catalysts for the asymmetric P–H addition reaction involving activated olefins. Our studies on the asymmetric P–H addition of diphenylphosphine to malonate ester and α,β,γ,δ-alkyliden...
