Enantioselective decarboxylative protonation of tetralone-derived β-ketocarboxylic acids was achieved with up to 89% enantiomeric excess (ee)-in the presence of a chiral primary amine catalyst. Furthermore, this method was applied to enantioselective deuteration to afford the corresponding α-deuterioketones with up to 88% ee.

A family of phosphite/phosphinite-thioether ligands have been tested in the Ir-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of a range of olefins (50 substrates in total). The presented ligands are synthesized in three steps from cheap indene and they are air-stable solids. Their modular architecture has been crucial to maximize the catalytic performance for each type of substrate. Improving most Ir-catalysts reported so far, this ligand family presents a broader substrate scope, covering different substitution patterns with different functional groups, ranging from unfunctionalized olefins, through olefins with poorly coordinative groups, to olefins with coordinative functional groups. α,β-Unsaturated acyclic and cyclic esters, ketones and amides werehydrogenated in enantioselectivities ranging from 83 to 99% ee. Enantioselectivities ranging from 91 to 98% ee were also achieved for challenging substrates such as unfunctionalized 1,1′-disubstituted olefins, functionalized tri- and 1,1′-disubstituted vinyl phosphonates, and β-cyclic enamides. The catalytic performance of the Ir-ligand assemblies was maintained when the environmentally benign 1,2-propylene carbonate was used as solvent. (Figure presented.).
Rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of exocyclic α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds

A highly enantioselective hydrogenation of exocyclic α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds catalyzed by Rh/bisphosphine-thiourea (ZhaoPhos) has been developed, giving the corresponding α-chiral cyclic lactones, lactams and ketones with high yields and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% yield and 99% ee). Remarkably, the hydrogen bond between the substrate and the catalyst plays a critical role in this transformation. The synthetic utility of this protocol has been demonstrated by efficient synthesis of chiral 3-(4-fluorobenzyl)piperidine, a key chiral fragment of bioactive molecules.
