A ruthenocenyl phosphino-oxazoline-ruthenium complex (RuPHOX?Ru) catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of α-aryl keto acids has been successfully developed, affording the corresponding chiral α-aryl α-hydroxy carboxylic acids in high yields and with up to 97% ee. The reaction could be performed on a gram scale with a relatively low catalyst loading (up to 5000 S/C) and the resulting products can be transformed to several chiral building blocks, biologically active compounds and chiral drugs. (Figure presented.).

A new efficient and highly enantioselective direct asymmetric hydrogenation of α-keto acids employing the Ir/SpiroPAP catalyst under mild reaction conditions has been developed. This method might be feasible for the preparation of a series of chiral α-hydroxy acids on a large scale.
Robust enzymatic resolution of 3-fluoromandelic acid with lipase PS supported on celite
Mendiola, Javier,Garcia-Cerrada, Susana,De Frutos, Oscar,De La Puente, Maria Luz
experimental part, p. 1312 - 1316 (2012/10/18)
The resolution of different mandelic acids using the lipase PS Amano SD enzyme is described. By supporting the lyophilized enzyme over Celite, both the activity and the stability of lipase PS in organic media were significantly improved, enabling the robust resolution scale-up of 3-fluoromandelic acid. The methodology was extended to produce a range of optically pure (R)-mandelic acids, avoiding tedious extractions or chromatography.
