Highly enantioselective hydrogenation of 2-oxo-4-arybutanoic acids to 2-hydroxy-4-arylbutanoic acids

The Ru-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of 2-oxo-4-arybutanoic acids to afford 2-hydroxy-4-arybutanoic acids was accomplished by employing SunPhos as chiral ligand and 1 M aq HBr as additive. The high enantioselectivities (88.4%-92.6% ee) and efficiency (TON=10,000, TOF=300 h-1) make this method efficient for the synthesis of an important intermediate, (R)-2-hydroxy-4-phenylbutanoic acid, for ACE inhibitors.

Highly enantioselective sequential hydrogenation of ethyl 2-Oxo-4-arylbut-3-enoate to ethyl 2-hydroxy-4-arylbutyrate

(Chemical Equation Presented) The hydrogenation of (E)-ethyl 2-oxo-4-arylbut-3-enoate with [NH2Me2]+[{RuCl [(S)-SunPhos]}2(μ-Cl3)] gave ethyl 2-hydroxy-4- arylbutyrate with 94-96% ee. Further investigation has proved that the hydrogenation proceeded via a sequential hydrogenation of C=O and C=C bonds, which is sensitive to the reaction temperature. Hydrolysis of ethyl 2-hydroxy-4-phenylbutyrate (ee 93%) provided the 2-hydroxy-4-phenylbutyric acid with 81% yield at 99% ee after a single recrystallization from 1, 2-dichloroethylene.
