چکیده
A method is reported for making a potentially very wide series of ruthenium hydrido chloro complexes with diamine and readily-prepared diphosphinite ligand modules as precatalysts for the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of simple ketones to give chiral alcohols in good yield and enantioselectivity.

New phosphine-diamine and phosphine-amino-alcohol tridentate ligands for ruthenium catalysed enantioselective hydrogenation of ketones and a concise lactone synthesis enabled by asymmetric reduction of cyano-ketones
Enantioselective hydrogenation of ketones is a key reaction in organic chemistry. In the past, we have attempted to deal with some unsolved challenges in this arena by introducing chiral tridentate phosphine-diamine/Ru catalysts. New catalysts and new applications are presented here, including the synthesis of phosphine-amino-alcohol P,N,OH ligands derived from (R,S)-1-amino-2-indanol, (S,S)-1-...

The design and synthesis of effective enantioselective catalysts for hydrogenation of simple ketones remains a challenging problem.1 Recently, Noyori2 disclosed a ternary catalyst system consisting of Ru-BINAP-chiral diamine-KOH, which is highly efficient in the asymmetric hydrogenation of a variety of simple ketones lacking a secondary coordinating functional group. We have developed rhodium c...

In this account, we describe the design, synthesis and applications of tethered versions of the Ru(II)/N-tosyl-1,2-diphenylethylene-1,2-diamine (TsDPEN) class of catalyst that are commonly used for asymmetric transfer hydrogenation and asymmetric hydrogenation of ketones and imines. The review covers key aspects of the reaction mechanisms and examples of applications, including industrial appli...
متن کاملPhosphine-free chiral iridium catalysts for asymmetric catalytic hydrogenation of simple ketones
Novel pyridylalkylamine and aminopyridinato ligand stabilized iridium complexes with no P ligand are introduced. These complexes have been investigated as catalysts for asymmetric hydrogenation of simple ketones, resulting in an active catalyst for bulky alkyl aryl ketones that is a-methylpropiophenone. The ligands were synthesized from inexpensive starting materials and their modular design al...
