• ][6], palladium [7][8], platinum [9][10] and gold [11][12][13] in combination with chiral co-ligands or counter ions that are used after alignment of the ligand’s axial chirality. One major advantage of stereodynamic ligands is that there is no need for separate preparation of one ligand enantiomer as
