The chiral new aminophosphine-phosphinites (AMPP's 1-7) have been synthesized and applied successfully in the enantioselective hydrogenation of dihydro-4,4-dimethyl-2,3-furandione 8, N-benzylbenzoylformamide 9, and ethylpyruvate 10 providing the hydroxy products in up to 97, 95, and 80% ee, respectively.
