The ruthenium catalyst generated in situ from H(2)Ru(CO)(PPh(3))(3), (S)-SEGPHOS, and a TADDOL-derived phosphoric acid promotes butadiene hydrohydroxyalkylation to form enantiomerically enriched products. Notably, the observed diastereo- and enantioselectivity is the opposite of that observed using BINOL-derived phosphate counterions in combination with (S)-SEGPHOS, the same enantiomer of the chiral ligand. Match/mismatch effects between the chiral ligand and the chiral TADDOL-phosphate counteri ...[more]
