A readily activated iron alkyl precatalyst effectively catalyzes the highly enantioselective hydroboration of N-alkyl imines. Employing a chiral bis(oxazolinylmethylidene)isoindoline pincer ligand, the asymmetric reduction of various acyclic N-alkyl imines provided the corresponding α-chiral amines in excellent yields and with up to >99 % ee. The applicability of this base metal catalytic system was further demonstrated with the synthesis of the pharmaceuticals Fendiline and Tecalcet.

A chiral disulfonimide (DSI)-catalyzed asymmetric reduction of N-alkyl imines with Hantzsch esters as a hydrogen source in the presence of Boc2O has been developed. The reaction delivers Boc-protected N-alkyl amines with excellent yields and enantioselectivity. The method tolerates a large variety of alkyl amines, thus illustrating potential for a general reductive cross-coupling of ketones with diverse amines, and it was applied in the synthesis of the pharmaceuticals (S)-Rivastigmine, NPS R-568 Hydrochloride, and (R)-Fendiline.
