Phosphoramidite ligand

A phosphoramidite ligand is a chiral monodentate phosphine ligand, widely used for enantioselective synthesis. They were invented by Dutch chemist Ben Feringa. The introduction of phosphoramidite ligands challenged the notion that high flexibility in the metal–ligand complex is detrimental for high stereo control.
