The new chiral ligands (R)-/(S)-N-((1-phenylethyl)carbamothioyl)benzamide (L1/L2), (R)-/(S)-N-((1-phenylethyl)carbamothioyl)thiophene-2-carboxamide (L3/L4), and (R)-/(S)-N-((1-phenylethyl)carbamothioyl)furan-2-carboxamide (L5/L6) were synthesized, characterized, and used to prepare novel chiral Ru(II) complexes. The chiral Ru(II) complexes 1-6 were obtained from reactions between the chiral ligands L1-L6 and [RuCl2(p-cymene)2] 2. The complexes were characterized by analytical and spectroscopic (NMR, FT-IR, electronic) techniques. The solid-state structures of the ligands L1 and L3 and complexes 1, 4, and 6 were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. In all of the complexes, the ligand is bound to the Ru(II) center only via the sulfur donor atom. This monodentate coordination of the acylthiourea ligands was observed for the first time with ruthenium. The Ru(II) complexes 1-6 all act as efficient catalysts for the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of aromatic ketones in the presence of 2-propanol and KOH to produce chiral alcohols. All of the catalysts showed excellent conversions of up to 99% and enantiomeric excesses of up to 99%.

In this study, four bacterial strains were tested for their ability to reduce acetophenones to its corresponding alcohol. Among these strains Weissella paramesenteroides N7 was found to be the most successful biocatalyst to reduce the ketones to the corresponding alcohols. The reaction conditions were systematically optimized for W. paramesenteroides N7 that resulted in high enantioselectivity and conversion rates for the bioreduction. The scale-up asymmetric reduction of 1-(4-methoxyphenyl) propan-1-one (1r) by W. paramesenteroides N7 gave (R)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl) propan-1-ol (2r) with 94% yield and >99% enantiomeric excess. This is the first report showing the synthesis of (R)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl) propan-1-ol (2r) in enantiopure form using a biocatalyst on a gram scale. The whole cell catalyzed the reductions of ketone substrates on the preparative scale, demonstrating that W. paramesenteroides N7 would be a valuable biocatalyst for the preparation of chiral aromatic alcohols of pharmaceutical interest as a promising and alternative green approach.

A pair of novel optically pure phosphinite ligands were synthesized by ring opening reaction of chiral amines with (R)-styrene oxide or (S)-glycidyl phenyl ether oxide using a straightforward method in high yields and their ruthenium complexes were described in detail. The ruthenium complexes proved to be highly efficient catalysts for the enantioselective hydrogenation of ketones, affording products up to 99% ee. The results showed that the corresponding chiral alcohols could be obtained with high activity and excellent enantioselectivities at the desired temperature. (2S)-1-{benzyl[(1S)-1-(naphthalen-1-yl)ethyl]amino}-3-phenoxypropan-2-yl diphenylphosphinito[dichloro(η6-benzene)ruthenium (II)] acts an excellent catalyst in the reduction of ketones, giving the corresponding alcohol up to 99% ee.
Catalysts for the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of various ketones from [3-[(2S)-2-[(diphenylphosphanyl)oxy]-3-phenoxypropyl]-1-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium chloride] and [Ru(η6-arene)(μ-Cl)Cl]2, Ir(η5-C5Me5)(μ-Cl)Cl]2 or [Rh(μ-Cl)(cod)]2

The combination of [3-[(2S)-2-[(diphenylphosphanyl)oxy]-3-phenoxypropyl]-1-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium chloride] with [Ru(η6-arene)(μ-Cl)Cl]2, Ir(η5-C5Me5)(μ-Cl)Cl]2 or [Rh(μ-Cl)(cod)]2, in the presence of KOH/isoPrOH, has been found to generate catalysts that are capable of enantioselectively reducing alkyl, aryl ketones to the corresponding (R)-alcohols. Under optimized conditions, when the catalysts were applied to the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation, we obtained the secondary alcohol products in high conversions and enantioselectivities using only 0.5 mol% catalyst loading. In addition, [3-[(2S)-2-{[(chloro(?4-1,5-cyclooctadiene)rhodium)diphenyl phosphanyl] oxy}-3-phenoxypropyl]-1-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium chloride], (6) complex is much more active than the other analogous complexes in the transfer hydrogenation. Catalyst 6 acts as excellent catalysts, giving the corresponding (R)-1-phenyl ethanol in 99% conversion in 30 min (TOF ≤ 396 h?1) and in high enantioselectivity (92% ee).

Metal-catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation is a powerful and practical method for the reduction of ketones to produce the corresponding secondary alcohols, which are valuable building blocks in the pharmaceutical, perfume, and agrochemical industries. Hence, a series of novel chiral β-amino alcohols were synthesized by chiral amines with regioselective ring opening of (S)-propylene oxide or reaction with (S)-(+)-2-hydroxypropyl p-toluenesulfonate by a straightforward method. The chiral ruthenium catalytic systems generated from [Ru(arene)(μ-Cl)Cl]2 complexes and chiral phosphinite ligands based on amino alcohol derivatives were employed in asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of ketones to give the corresponding optically active alcohols; (2S)-1-{[(2S)-2-[(diphenylphosphanyl)oxy]propyl][(1R)-1-phenylethyl]amino}propan-2-yldiphenylphosphinitobis[dichol-oro(η6-benzene)ruthenium(II)] acts an excellent catalyst in the reduction of α-naphthyl methyl ketone, giving the corresponding alcohol with up to 99% ee. The substituents on the backbone of the ligands were found to have a remarkable effect on both the conversion and enantioselectivity of the catalysts. Furthermore, this transfer hydrogenation is characterized by low reversibility under these conditions.

Vigna radiata was investigated as whole cell catalyst for the bioreduction of aryl and heteroaryl prochiral ketones into optically active alcohols. The study indicates selective bioreduction of different substituted aryl and heteroaryl ketones (1a–12a) to their respective (S)–chiral alcohols (1b–12b) in good to high enantioselectivity (77.7–97.5%) with very good yields (73–82%). The results obtained confirm that the keto reductase has broad substrate specificity and selectivity in catalyzing both six and five-membered heteroaryl methyl ketones. The current methodology substantiates a promising and alternative green approach for the synthesis of secondary chiral alcohols of biological importance in a mild, cheap and environmentally benign process.

The reactivity and stereoselectivity showed by a new strain of Candida tropicalis in the reduction of prochiral ketones have been compared with the ones previously attained in our laboratory using microorganisms from the Brazilian biodiversity. In this manner, Candida tropicalis has demonstrated its versatility as stereoselective agent in the bioreduction of a series of aromatic ketones. These prochiral compounds were converted into their corresponding optically alcohols with moderate to excellent stereopreference depending on the substrate structure. Among ketones tested, nitroacetophenones were enzymatically reduced to enantiopure (S)-alcohol with complete conversion.

The Noyori-Ikariya (arene)Ru(II)/TsDPEN precatalyst has been anchored to amorphous silica and DAVISIL through the η6-coordinated arene ligand via a straightforward synthesis and the derived systems, (arene)Ru(II)/TsDPEN@silica and (arene)Ru(II)/TsDPEN@DAVISIL, form highly efficient catalysts for the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of a range of electron-rich and electron-poor aromatic ketones, giving good conversion and excellent ee's under mild reaction conditions. Moreover, catalyst generated in situ immediately prior to addition of substrate and hydrogen donor, by reaction of silica-supported [(arene)RuCl2]2 with (S,S)-TsDPEN, was as efficient as that generated from its preformed counterpart [(arene)Ru{(S,S)-TsDPEN}Cl]@silica. Gratifyingly, the initial TOFs (up to 1085 h?1) and ee's (96–97 %) obtained with these catalysts either rivalled or outperformed those previously reported for catalysts supported by either silica or polymer immobilized through one of the nitrogen atoms of TsDPEN. While the high ee's were also maintained during recycle studies, the conversion dropped steadily over the first three runs due to gradual leaching of the ruthenium.

Novel bidentate N-heterocyclic carbene-phosphine iridium complexes have been synthesized and evaluated in the hydrogenation of ketones. Reported catalytic systems require base additives and, if excluded, need elevated temperature or high pressure of hydrogen gas to achieve satisfactory reactivity. The developed catalysts showed extremely high reactivity and good enantioselectivity under base-free and mild conditions. In the presence of 1 mol % catalyst under 1 bar hydrogen pressure at room temperature, hydrogenation was complete in 30 minutes giving up to 96 % ee. Again, this high reactivity was achieved in additive-free conditions. Mechanistic experiments demonstrated that balloon pressure of hydrogen was sufficient to form the activate species by reducing and eliminating the 1,5-cyclooctadiene ligand. The pre-activated catalyst was able to hydrogenate acetophenone with 89 % conversion in 5 min.
