A highly enantioselective cobalt-catalyzed hydroboration of diaryl ketones with pinacolborane was developed using chiral imidazole iminopyridine as a ligand to access chiral benzhydrols in good to excellent yields and ee. This protocol could be carried out in a gram scale under mild reaction conditions with good functional group tolerance. Chiral biologically active 3-substituted phthalide and (S)-neobenodine could be easily constructed through asymmetric hydroboration as a key step.

With certain amounts of sodium tert-butoxide and tert-butanol as additives, catalytic amounts of an inexpensive and easy-to-handle copper source Cu(OAc)2·H2O, a commercially available and air-stable non-racemic dipyridylphosphine ligand, as well as the stoichiometric desirable hydride donor polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS), formed a versatile in situ catalyst system for the enantioselective reduction of a broad spectrum of prochiral diaryl and aryl heteroarylketones in air, in high yields and with good to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 96 %). In particular, the practical viability of this process was evinced by its successful applications in the asymmetric synthesis of optically enriched potent antihistaminic drugs orphenadrine and neobenodine.
