A novel chiral surfactant-type catalyst is developed. Micelles formed in water by association of the catalysts themselves, and this was confirmed by TEM analyses. Asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of aliphatic ketones catalyzed by the chiral metallomicellar catalyst gave good to excellent conversions and remarkable stereoselectivities (up to 95% ee). Synergistic effects between the metal-catalyzed center and the hydrophobic microenvironment of the core in the metallomicelle led to high enantioselectivities.

Asymmetric reduction of ketones by Geotrichum candidum in the presence of Amberlite XAD, a solid organic solvent, was described. A hydrophobic polymer, XAD, was used as material to control the stereochemical course of microbial reductions. Aliphatic and aromatic ketones were reduced to the corresponding (S)-alcohols in excellent enantiomeric excess (ee) in the presence of XRD while low enantioselectivities were observed in the absence of the polymer.
