      The mechanism of the asymmetric hydrogenation of prochiral enamides by well-defined, neutral bis(phosphine) cobalt(0) and cobalt(II) precatalysts has been explored using(R,R)-<sup>iPr</sup>DuPhos ((R,R)-<sup>iPr</sup>DuPhos = (+)-1,2-bis[(2R,5R)-2,5-diisopropylphospholano]benzene) as a representative chiral bis(phosphine) ligand. A series of (R,R)-(<sup>iPr</sup>DuPhos)Co(enamide) (enamide = ...
