The development of a rhodium catalyst for endo- and enantioselective hydroacylation of ortho-allylbenzaldehydes is reported. A catalyst generated in situ from [Rh(COD)Cl]2, (R)-DTBM-SEGPHOS, and NaBARF promotes the desired hydroacylation reactions and minimizes the formation of byproducts from competitive alkene isomerization and ene/dehydration pathways. These rhodium-catalyzed processes generate the 3,4-dihydronaphthalen-1(2H)-one products in moderate-to-high yields (49-91%) with excellent enantioselectivities (96-99% ee).

Page/Page column 21-23, (2012/11/14)
The present invention relates to the field of catalytic hydrogenation and, more particularly, to a process for the reduction by hydrogenation, using molecular H2, of a C6-C20 conjugated dienal into the corresponding deconjugated enal, characterized in that said process is carried out in the presence of a catalytic system comprising at least a base and at least one complex in the form of a rhodium complex comprising a C34-C60 bidentate diphosphine ligand (L2) coordinating the rhodium.
