In organic chemistry, atoms other than carbon and hydrogen are generally referred to as heteroatoms. The most common heteroatoms are nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur. Now I present to you an article called Studies on the rhodium- and ruthenium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of α-dehydroamino acids using a family of chiral dipyridylphosphine ligand (P-Phos), published in 2003-04-18, which mentions a compound: 221012-82-4, mainly applied to acetamidoarylacrylate asym hydrogenation; dehydroamino acid asym hydrogenation; phenylalanine derivative enantiopure preparation; hydrogenation catalyst chiral dipyridylphosphine rhodium ruthenium preparation, COA of Formula: C38H34N2O4P2.
The applications of the chiral dipyridylphosphine ligands I [Ar = Ph, C6H4Me-4, C6H3(Me)2-3,5] in Ru- and Rh-catalyzed hydrogenations of a variety of (Z)-2-acetamido-3-arylacrylates RCH:C(NHCOMe)CO2R1 (R = Ph, C6H4Cl-2, C6H4Cl-3, C6H4Cl-4, C6H4Me-4, C6H4OMe-4, R1 = H, Me) have been studied systematically. The results show that the electronic and steric properties of these ligands have significant influences on the enantioselectivity of the reduction Rh and Ru complexes of the same dipyridylphosphine ligand family exhibit different trends in enantioselectivity toward the same substrate.
In addition to the literature in the link below, there is a lot of literature about this compound((R)-2,2′,6,6′-Tetramethoxy-4,4′-bis(diphenylphosphino)-3,3′-bipyridine)COA of Formula: C38H34N2O4P2, illustrating the importance and wide applicability of this compound(221012-82-4).
