Monodentate phosphoramidite ligands have been developed based on enantiopure 6,6'-dimethylbiphenols with axial chirality. These chiral ligands are easy to prepare and flexible for modifications. The fine-tuning capability of these ligands plays a significant role in achieving high enantioselectivity in the asymmetric hydro-formylation of allyl cyanide and the conjugate addition of diethylzinc to cycloalkenones.
