A series of BoPhoz-type phosphine-aminophosphine ligands were employed in the Rh-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of β-（acylamino）acrylates. The results indicated that the structure of BoPhoz-type ligands has a significant influence on this hydrogenation, and ligand 3c bearing bis [ （ 3, 5-difluoro） phenyl ] phosphinoamino moiety and bis [ （3, 5-dimethyl）phenyl ]- phosphino moiety showed the best enantioselectivity. Under the optimal conditions, a variety of β- （acylamino） acrylates were h...
