This personal account presents a selection of three distinct classes of phosphorous ligands, namely, monodentate meta-substituted phosphinites, bis-phosphites, and P-chiral supramolecular phosphines, developed in our group. The synthesis of these ligands, isolation, characterization, and their performance in transition metal-catalyzed hydroformylation, isomerizing hydroformylation, and asymmetric hydrogenation of olefins is summarized. The state of the art development in iron-catalyzed hydroformylation of alkenes and our contributions to the field is discussed. Use of phosphines enabled iron-catalyzed hydroformylation of alkenes under mild conditions. Thus, this account demonstrates the central role of phosphorus ligands in industrially relevant transformations such as hydrogenation and hydroformylation. The seemingly matured field of ligand discovery still holds significant potential and will steer the field of homogeneous catalysis.</p>

	The enantioselective synthesis of P-stereogenic compounds has emerged as a central focus in modern asymmetric catalysis, driven by their pivotal roles as ligands (Ls), organocatalysts, and bioactive molecules. Over the past decade, significant advances have been made in developing catalytic strategies that enable precise control over phosphorus stereochemistry, expanding both the structural diversity and synthetic utility of these scaffolds. This review highlights recent progress in two key areas: direct P-C bond formation and desymmetrization. P-C bond-forming approaches include cross-coupling reactions of secondary phosphines or their oxides with aryl, alkyl, or benzyl halides, as well as hydrophosphination of alkenes and alkynes. Desymmetrization strategies encompass nucleophilic substitution at P(V) centers, cyclization, C-H activation (CHA), phenolic -OH activation, and P-O alkylation/arylation. Mechanistic insights into these transformations have been discussed, along with the derivatization of P-chiral products and their applications in catalysis, L design, and bioactive molecule synthesis. This comprehensive overview shall serve as a valuable resource for researchers working in asymmetric organophosphorus chemistry.</p>
