P,O joins the mix: P,O ligands (L1) form efficient iridium catalysts for the asymmetric hydrogenation of olefins. The proline-derived ligands lead to high enantioselectivities with several classes of alkenes, most notably with α,β-unsaturated carboxylic e

2-Alkylidenecycloalkanones are powerful synthons used as the key intermediates in many important syntheses. Because of their potential, a general method of preparation from readily available starting materials, under very mild conditions, was considered to be worthwhile. Cerium(III) chloride heptahydrate in combination with sodium iodide in refluxing acetonitrile promotes a regio- and stereoselective β-elimination reaction to (E)-2-alkylidenecycloalkanones in 2-(1-hydroxyalkyl)cycloalkanones. The synthetic value of the present procedure is demonstrated by the synthesis of monoterpene (S)-(-)-pulegone (8) in its optically active form.
