Chiral iridium(I) bis(NHC) complexes as catalysts for asymmetric transfer hydrogenation
The common use of NHC complexes in transition-metal mediated C–C coupling and metathesis reactions in recent decades has established N-heterocyclic carbenes as a new class of ligand for catalysis. The field of asymmetric catalysis with complexes bearing NHC-containing chiral ligands is dominated by mixed carbene/oxazoline or carbene/phosphane chelating ligands. In contrast, applications of comp...
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...

A new efficient and highly enantioselective direct asymmetric hydrogenation of α-keto acids employing the Ir/SpiroPAP catalyst under mild reaction conditions has been developed. This method might be feasible for the preparation of a series of chiral α-hydroxy acids on a large scale.
متن کاملChiral bicyclic NHC/Ir complexes for catalytic asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of ketones.
A diverse series of chiral bicyclic NHC/Ir complexes were prepared via a previously developed divergent synthesis of chiral imidazolium salts. Among the complexes, 8dz was found to be an excellent catalyst precursor for the Ir-catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of ketones. The reaction of ketones with 8dz proceeded smoothly to give corresponding alcohols with high enantioselectivities ...

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.
