(R,R)-formoterol was synthesized in seven steps with 4-hydroxyl-3-nitro- acetophenone as the starting material. The key intermediate, the chiral secondary alcohol 4, was prepared via Rh-catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation with (S,S)-PEGBsDPEN as the ligand and sodium formate as the hydrogen donor under mild conditions. With a mixture of PEG 2000 and water as the reaction media, the catalyst system could be recycled four times.

A general continuous-flow procedure for direct reductive amination of secondary and primary amines with aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes as well as ketones is reported. The use of hydrogen gas and commercially available Pt/C as a heterogeneous catalyst is a key. In addition to exhibiting an excellent functional group tolerance, this method allows the fast formation of C?N bonds without production of any hazardous chemical waste. Applications to the synthesis of key intermediates toward active pharmaceutical ingredients (Donepezil and Arformoterol/Tamsulosin) are also described. (Figure presented.).

Cyclopentadienone-based iron complexes were used for the first time to successfully catalyze the diastereoselective hydrogenation of enantiopure imines. Chiral amines, including valuable biologically active products, were obtained often as enantiomericall
