Traditional approaches to stereoselective synthesis require high levels of enantio- and diastereocontrol in every step that forms a new stereocenter. Here, we report an alternative approach, in which the stereochemistry of organic substrates is selectivel

An efficient enantioselective acylative desymmetrization of cyclic meso-1,3-diols was developed by using a chiral DMAP derivative 1e having a 1,1¤-binaphthyl unit. The reactions required only 0.5mol% of the catalyst and showed good to excellent enantioselectivity. With this transformation, 5a, a key building block for the synthesis of natural products, was easily obtained in almost enantiomerically pure form after a single recrystallization. Control experiments revealed that tert-alcohol units on the catalyst were responsible for both the catalytic activity and enantioselectivity.

An efficient and practical arene hydrogenation procedure based on the use of heterogeneous platinum group catalysts has been developed. Rh/C is the most effective catalyst for the hydrogenation of the aromatic ring, which can be conducted in iPrOH under neutral conditions and at ordinary to medium H 2 pressures (10 atm). A variety of arenes such as alkylbenzenes, benzoic acids, pyridines, furans, are hydrogenated to the corresponding cyclohexyl and heterocyclic compounds in good to excellet yields. The use of Ru/C, less expensive than Rh/C, affords an effective and practical method for the hydrogenation of arenes including phenols. Both catalysts can be reused several times after simple filtration without any significant loss of catalytic activity.
