caption_attribution_description: chemical structure of the modifided Trost's ligand, (S,S)-DACH-naphthyl Trost ligand, or (1S,2S)-(-)-1,2-diaminocyclohexane- N,N'-bis(2-diphenylphosphino- 1-naphthoyl)
context_page_description: The Trost ligand is a diphosphine used in the palladium-catalyzed Trost asymmetric allylic alkylation. Other C₂-symmetric ligands derived from trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane have been developed, such as the-DACH-naphthyl ligand derived from 2-diphenylphosphino-1-naphthalenecarboxylic acid. Related bidentate phosphine-containing ligands derived from other chiral diamines and 2-diphenylphosphinobenzoic acid have also been developed for applications in asymmetric synthesis.
