A simple and convenient method was reported for the preparation of optically active β-hydroxy-β-arylpropionates, δ-hydroxy-δ- aryl-β-oxo-pentanoates and their butyryl derivatives via CRL-catalyzed hydrolysis. The optically active products are potential precursors of some chiral pharmaceuticals and natural products.

Enantioselective hydrogenation using chiral complexes between atropisomeric diphosphines and ruthenium is a powerful tool for producing chiral compounds. Using a simple and straightforward in situ catalyst preparation, the conditions were optimized using molecular hydrogen for both academic and industrial purposes. This led to the best conditions and the lowest catalytic ratio required for the pressure used. Hydrogenation of various β-keto esters was efficiently performed at atmospheric and higher pressures, leading to the use of very low catalyst-substrate ratios up to 1/20,000. Asymmetric hydrogenations were used in key-steps towards the total synthesis of corynomycolic acid, Duloxetine and Fluoxetine.

Both enantiomers of tomoxetine 7a,7b and fluoxetine 8a,8b (as their hydrochloride salts) have been synthetized from cinnamyl alkohol by asymmetric epoxidation, and their absolute configurations have been established.Optimal conditions for regioselective Red-Al reduction at C-2 of 2,3-epoxycinnamyl alcohol are discussed.
