Used as a chiral catalyst or chiral ligand in asymmetric synthesis, enabling the formation of enantiomerically enriched compounds. Its structural rigidity and well-defined chiral environment make it particularly effective in catalyzing enantioselective transformations such as C–C bond-forming reactions, hydrogenations, and other stereoselective processes. Commonly employed in pharmaceutical synthesis where control of stereochemistry is critical. Also utilized in research settings to develop new chiral catalysts and to study asymmetric induction mechanisms.
