Rhodium metal is an excellent metal for a complex catalyst, but its production site and production amount are limited, and its price is also high. When it is used as a catalyst, Will increase the ratio of the price of rhodium to the product price, which will affect the manufacturing cost of the product. On the other hand, ruthenium metal is cheaper than rhodium metal and is expected as an industrially advantageous catalyst,
Problems remain with respect to reaction refinement and application. Therefore, there has been a demand for a catalyst that is inexpensive, has high activity, is durable, and can obtain a high asymmetric yield in an asymmetric reaction, that is, a product with high optical purity.

Rhodium metal is an excellent metal for a complex catalyst, but its production site and production amount are limited, and its price is also high. When it is used as a catalyst, Will increase the ratio of the price of rhodium to the product price, which will affect the manufacturing cost of the product. On the other hand, ruthenium metal is cheaper than rhodium metal and is expected as an industrially advantageous catalyst,
Problems remain with respect to reaction refinement and application. Therefore, there has been a demand for a catalyst that is inexpensive, has high activity, is durable, and can obtain a high asymmetric yield in an asymmetric reaction, that is, a product with high optical purity.
