In this paper,a series of optically active MeO-BIPHEP-type ligands,(S)-6,6′-dimethoxy-2,2’-bis(di-p-alkoxyphenylphosphine)- 1,1′-biphenyl were synthesized and used to prepare the ruthenium complex.The effects of para-substituted were observed,the results showed that the ruthenium catalysts[diphosphine RuCl2 diamine]containing both t-Bu and i-Pr substitutions have better activities and enantioselectivities than the non-substituted ruthenium catalysts in the asymmetric hydrogenation of acetophenone.
