MatPhos, a good mate for hard tasks: The asymmetric hydrogenation of 1-alkyl vinyl esters, thwarted so far by mediocre ee values and low activities, can now be achieved with MatPhos/Rh catalysts with ee values of 96-99 % for a variety of substrates at low catalyst loadings (0.1-1 mol %) and under mild conditions (5-20 bar H2, room temperature). After hydrolysis, the corresponding chiral secondary alkyl alcohols can be obtained in high enantiopurities providing a general and practical route to this important product class. Copyright

Trifluoromethanesulfonic acid catalyzed isomerization of kinetic enol derivatives to the thermodynamically favored isomers was developed. Under the present conditions, kinetic enol phosphates, enol acetates and benzoates, and enol sulfonates were smoothly isomerized to produce the corresponding thermodynamically favored isomers in good to excellent yields.
