Herein, we report the preparation of enantiomerically pure forms of 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-3-ol (1), chroman-4-ol (2), thiochroman-4-ol (3), 1-(furan-2-yl) ethanol (5) and 1-(thiophen-2-yl) ethanol (6), through a kinetic resolution catalysed by Candida antarctica lipase B/Na2CO3 hydrolysis sequence in organic media. The (R)-furnished alcohols and the (S)-remained acetates are recovered enantiopures (ee?>99%, E???200, Conv = 50%). Those ideal enzymatic kinetic resolution (EKRs) are well incorporated to the Mitsunobu inversion protocol in a one pot procedure to give (S)-heterocyclic acetates (1a–3a) in good to high enantiomeric excess (88%–92% ee). Whilst, the (S)-heteroaromatic acetates (5a and 6a) are given with moderate enantiomeric excess (51%–62% ee). All the (S)-acetates are given in good isolated chemical yields (>80%) allowing to overcome the maximum of 50% yield which could be usually reached in a regular kinetic resolution processes.

The Ru-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of ketones with chiral diamine and monodentate achiral phosphine has been developed. A wide range of ketones were hydrogenated to afford the corresponding chiral secondary alcohols in good to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 98.1% ee). In addition, an appropriate mechanism for the asymmetric hydrogenation was proposed and verified by NMR spectroscopy.

Most ligands applied for asymmetric hydrogenation are synthesized via multistep reactions with expensive chemical reagents. Herein, a series of novel and easily accessed cinchona-alkaloid-based NNP ligands have been developed in two steps. By combining [Ir(COD)Cl]2, 39 ketones including aromatic, heteroaryl, and alkyl ketones have been hydrogenated, all affording valuable chiral alcohols with 96.0-99.9% ee. A plausible reaction mechanism was discussed by NMR, HRMS, and DFT, and an activating model involving trihydride was verified.
