چکیده

A little gold goes a long way: as little as 0.01 mol % of chiral gold phosphate is sufficient to afford the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of quinolines with high stereoselectivity (up to 98 % ee). The achiral ligands on gold were found to have considerable effect on the catalytic efficiency.

Asymmetric hydrogenation of quinolines catalyzed by iridium complexes of BINOL-derived diphosphonites.

A chiral diphosphonite, derived from BINOL and with an achiral diphenyl ether backbone, is an excellent ligand for the Ir-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of quinolines; achiral P-ligands serving as possible additives (ee = 73-96%).

Highly enantioselective hydrogenation of enamides catalyzed by chiral phosphoric acids.

A highly enantioselective hydrogenation of enamides catalyzed by a dual chiral-achiral acid system was developed. By employing a substoichiometric amount of a chiral phosphoric acid and acetic acid, catalyst loadings as low as 1 mol % of the chiral catalyst were sufficient to provide excellent yield and enantioselectivity of the reduction product.

A Highly Enantioselective Brønsted Acid Catalyzed Cascade Reaction: Organocatalytic Transfer Hydrogenation of Quinolines and their Application in the Synthesis of AlkaloidsThe authors acknowledge Degussa AG for generous funding

The enantioselective hydrogenation of olefins, ketones, and imines still represents an important topic in organic synthesis and catalysis. Although many highly enantioselective processes based on chiral Rh, Ru, and Ir complexes have been reported, most of these catalysts failed to give satisfactory results in the asymmetric hydrogenation of aromatic and heteroaromatic compounds. Examples of eff...

Highly enantioselective hydrogenation of quinolines using phosphine-free chiral cationic ruthenium catalysts: scope, mechanism, and origin of enantioselectivity.

Asymmetric hydrogenation of quinolines catalyzed by chiral cationic η(6)-arene-N-tosylethylenediamine-Ru(II) complexes have been investigated. A wide range of quinoline derivatives, including 2-alkylquinolines, 2-arylquinolines, and 2-functionalized and 2,3-disubstituted quinoline derivatives, were efficiently hydrogenated to give 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines with up to >99% ee and full convers...

Enantioselective organocatalytic partial transfer hydrogenation of lactone-fused quinolines.

The first enantioselective synthesis of 4-aza-podophyllotoxin derivatives by partial transfer hydrogenation of lactone-fused quinolines was achieved using a chiral Brønsted acid catalyst. This reaction was extended to a large scope of substrates with good yields and enantioselectivities.
