N ‐ and P‐donor derivatives have been prepared by functionalization of a readily available norbornene precursor. Palladium catalytic systems containing these new ligands were applied in allylic substitution, and yielded high activities and excellent enantioselectivities for the allylic alkylation and amination reactions ( ee up to 97 %). A full coordination analysis of the catalytic precursors including modelling studies was also carried out.
