35. a) This observation bears some resemblance to our previous work involving a diphosphite composed of a chiral-backbone diol and configurationally fluxional atropisomeric diphenol-derived P heterocycles that lead to three diastereomeric ligand/metal complexes with different kinetic profiles (D. G. Blackmond, T. Rosner, T. Neugebauer, M. T. Reetz, Angew. Chem. 1999, 111, 2333-2335;
36. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 1999, 38, 2196-2199;
37. M. T. Reetz, T. Neugebauer, Angew. Chem. 1999, 111, 134-137;
38. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 1999, 38, 179-181).
39. Diphenol itself is achiral, but atropisomerism is created in the synthesis of the P heterocycle. This basic phenomenon was reported indepently by Noyori, Mikami, and co-workers in a study in which they describe a Ru complex composed of a chiral diamine and an achiral diphenyl-derived diphosphine; upon complexation, the latter turns into a configurationally fluxional atropisomeric system that leads to two diastereomeric complexes with different reaction rates and enantioselectivity (K. Mikami, T. Korenaga, M. Terada, T. Ohkuma, T. Pham, R. Noyori, Angew. Chem. 1999, 111, 517-519;
40. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 1999, 38, 495-497).
41. 2Zn to aldehydes catalyzed by a chiral titanium alkoxide can be increased by the addition of "achiral" meso-1,2-diamine, which is really a pair of fluxional enantiomers (J. B. Balsells, P. J. Walsh, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2000, 122, 1802-1803);
