A chiral ferrocene-based bisphosphine ligand widely employed in palladium-, rhodium-, iridium-, nickel- and ruthenium-catalyzed asymmetric coupling, hydrogenation, allylic substitution, C–C bond formation, C–N coupling, and other enantioselective transformations. Frequently used in pharmaceutical process development, fine chemical synthesis, and homogeneous catalysis research.
