Used as a chiral ligand in asymmetric catalysis, particularly in transition metal-catalyzed reactions. Enhances enantioselectivity in processes such as hydrogenation, carbon-carbon bond formation, and other stereospecific transformations. Valuable in pharmaceutical synthesis for producing enantiomerically pure compounds. Also employed in organic synthesis to achieve high selectivity and efficiency in complex molecule construction. Its unique structure and steric properties make it suitable for challenging catalytic applications.
