With a little help from my friend: Combination of the racemic binap ligand with enantiopure bis‐( S )‐binol‐borate anion results in enantioselectivities up to 57 % ee in the rhodium‐catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of dimethyl itaconate, which corresponds to 85 % of the asymmetric induction caused by the enantiopure binap ligand.
