23. In our case the ligand does not cause rate enhancement, unlike the case of Pt-catalyzed ketoester hydrogenation, which involves a different mechanism. Such effects are specific to the reaction in question.

25. We define enantioselective turn-over number as (product ee x product yield)/(ligand loading x ligand ee); if this number is >1 then enantioselective catalysis has occurred.
26. Another mechanistic possibility involves the delivery of the isophorone to the metal surface via hydrogen bonding with the secondary amine of the ligand. This would also account for the production of racemic TMCH with the tertiary amine ligand 7, although it is less likely given the previous observation of the condensation product with proline and the lack of asymmetric induction in this reaction by other chiral modifiers with a capacity to hydrogen bond.
27. The ligands 8 were prepared from (S)-β-homoproline in an analogous manner to the preparation of the ligands 1-6.
