A new series of dirhodium(II) tetracarboxylate was derived from N ‐1,2‐naphthaloyl‐( S )‐amino acid ligands. In terms of enantioselectivity , Rh 2 ( S ‐1,2‐NTTL) 4 ( 3a ) derived from N ‐1,2‐naphthaloyl‐( S )‐ tert ‐leucine, was the best‐performing catalyst among the new series in the enantioselective synthesis of cyclopropylphosphonate derivatives (up to >99% enantiomeric excess). A predictive model was proposed to justify the observed high enantiomeric induction exhibited by Rh 2 ( S ‐1,2‐NTTL) 4 with donor‐acceptor phosphonate carbenoids.
