The asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of a wide range of ketones catalyzed by manganese complex as well as chiral PxNy-type ligand under mild conditions was investigated. Using 2-propanol as hydrogen source, various ketones could be enantioselectively hydrogenated by combining cheap, readily available [MnBr(CO)5] with chiral, 22-membered macrocyclic ligand (R,R,R',R')-CyP2N4 (L5) with 2 mol% of catalyst loading, affording highly valuable chiral alcohols with up to 95% ee.

A chiral cobalt pincer complex, when combined with an achiral electron-rich mono-phosphine ligand, catalyzes efficient asymmetric hydrogenation of a wide range of aryl ketones, affording chiral alcohols with high yields and moderate to excellent enantioselectivities (29 examples, up to 93% ee). Notably, the achiral mono-phosphine ligand shows a remarkable effect on the enantioselectivity of the reaction.

Ligand-controlled reactivity plays an important role in transition-metal catalysis, enabling a vast number of efficient transformations to be discovered and developed. However, a single ligand is generally used to promote all steps of the catalytic cycle (e.g., oxidative addition, reductive elimination), a requirement that makes ligand design challenging and limits its generality, especially in relay asymmetric transformations. We hypothesized that multiple ligands with a metal center might be used to sequentially promote multiple catalytic steps, thereby combining complementary catalytic reactivities through a simple combination of simple ligands. With this relay catalysis strategy (L/L?), we report here the first highly regio- and enantioselective remote hydroarylation process. By synergistic combination of a known chain-walking ligand and a simple asymmetric cross-coupling ligand with the nickel catalyst, enantioenriched α-aryl alkylboronates could be rapidly obtained as versatile synthetic intermediates through this formal asymmetric remote C(sp3)-H arylation process.
