A Highly Stereoselective Metal-Free Hydrogenation of Diimines for the Synthesis of Cis -Vicinal Diamines
Zhu, Xiaxia,Du, Haifeng
, p. 3106 - 3109 (2015)
A highly stereoselective metal-free hydrogenation of vicinal diimines has been successfully realized for the first time using 5-10 mol % of Piers borane as a catalyst under mild conditions, and a variety of cis-1,2-diamines were obtained in 92-99% yields.

Cat power: Judicious backbone substitution of N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) leads to stable Ru metathesis catalysts with frozen NHC conformations. This finding not only permits the isolation of complexes that are among the most active catalysts in the ring-closing metathesis of hindered olefins (see graphic; Ts=p-toluenesulfonyl), but also provides fundamental mechanistic insights on the role of N-aryl substituent conformations on catalyst activity.
