Chiral rhodium(II) catalysts used in asymmetric carbenoid chemistry can be efficiently heterogenized using a novel immobilization strategy. The immobilized catalysts display similar reactivity and stereoselectivity to their homogeneous counterparts and can be effectively recycled with limited loss in stereoselectivity.
