Palladium/Zinc Co-Catalyzed Asymmetric Hydrogenation of γ-Keto Carboxylic Acids

A palladium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of levulinic acid has been successful developed by using Zn(OTf)2 as co-catalyst. The present method not only has provided a strategy in the palladium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of ketone, but also allowed the preparation of a wide range of chiral γ-valerolactones in good yields with excellent enantioselectivities.

Iridium-Catalyzed Asymmetric Hydrogenation of ?- A nd ?-Ketoacids for Enantioselective Synthesis of ?- A nd ?-Lactones

A highly efficient asymmetric hydrogenation of ?- A nd ?-ketoacids was developed by using a chiral spiro iridium catalyst (S)-1a, affording the optically active ?- A nd ?-hydroxy acids/lactones in high yields with excellent enantioselectivities (up to >99% ee) and turnover numbers (TON up to 100000). This protocol provides an efficient and practical method for enantioselective synthesis of Ezetimibe.

Synthesis of chiral γ-lactones via a RuPHOX-Ru catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of aroylacrylic acids

An asymmetric hydrogenation of aroylacrylic acids catalyzed by RuPHOX-Ru catalyst has been developed, affording the corresponding chiral γ-lactones in high yields and with up to 93% ee. The methodology has the advantage of utilizing easily accessible substrates and has therefore expand the scope of the resulting chiral γ-lactones. Furthermore, high catalytic efficiency was achieved in that the reduction of both the C[dbnd]C and C[dbnd]O double bonds was achieved in one step. The current work provides an alternative and convenient pathway for the synthesis of a wide range of chiral γ-lactones.

Chemo-enzymatic synthesis of (R)- and (S)-3,4-dichlorophenylbutanolide intermediate in the synthesis of sertraline

3,4-Dichlorophenacylchloride was reduced with whole cell biocatalysts to give the (R)- or (S)-chlorohydrine in high yields and good to high enantiomeric excess. Yields and enantiomeric purity of the (S)-enantiomer were increased to 95 and >98%, respective

Synthesis of 4(S)-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-3,4-dihydro-1(2H)-naphthalenone by SN2 cuprate displacement of an activated chiral benzylic alcohol

Two routes for the preparation of 4(S)-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-3,4-dihydro-1(2H)-naphthalenone are reported. The most efficient route generates a chiral benzylic alcohol by catalytic asymmetric oxazaborolidine reduction of a γ-ketoester that is subsequently activated and displaced in an SN2 manner with a higher order cuprate. Intramolecular Friedel-Crafts cyclization of the resulting t-butylester affords the title compound.
