Abstract
Novel, racemic and optically active phosphorus compounds of the formula ##STR1## wherein R signifies lower alkyl, lower alkoxy or a protected hydroxy group, R.sup.1 signifies a five membered heteroaromatic ring, R.sup.2 stands for lower alkyl or lower alkoxy and n represents the number 0, 1 or 2, are described. The compounds of formula I serve in the form of complexes with a metal of Group VIII as catalyst for asymmetric hydrogenations and for enantioselective hydrogen displacements in prochiral allylic systems.
