Asymmetric catalytic hydrogenation and hydrogen transfer reactions of various functionalized olefins and ketones by use of BINAP-Ru (II) and BINAP-Rh (I) complexes have been reviewed. These asymmetric transformations have provided us new efficient routes to a variety of optically active organic compounds with important biological activity. Recent advances in the related field have been briefly summarized.
