Cobalt(I) complexes, modified with ( R )‐(6,6′‐dimethoxybiphenyl‐2,2′‐diyl)bis(diphenylphosphine) [Co(( R )‐MeO‐Biphep)(CO) 3 ]X (X = BF 4 [ 1 ] or OTf [ 2 ]), were synthesized and characterized. The compounds have a trigonal bipyramidal structure and are fluxional. They were tested as catalyst precursors for the enantioselective cyclocarbonylation of 4,4‐bis(carboethoxy)hept‐5‐en‐1‐yne 3. Enantioselectivities up to 78.5% were attained. However, activity and stereoselectivity are lower compared to catalytic systems based on Co 2 (CO) 8 modified with the same atropisomeric ligand.
