Used as a chiral ligand in asymmetric catalysis, particularly in enantioselective organic transformations. Its rigid cyclohexane-based scaffold with oxazoline rings provides a well-defined chiral environment, making it effective in coordinating to metal centers such as copper, palladium, or nickel. This complexation enables high stereoselectivity in reactions like cyclopropanation, Diels-Alder, and conjugate addition. The ligand is valued in pharmaceutical synthesis and fine chemical manufacturing where control of stereochemistry is critical. Its diphenyl substituents enhance steric bulk and electronic tuning, improving enantioselectivity and catalyst stability.
