Mn(i) phosphine-amino-phosphinites: a highly modular class of pincer complexes for enantioselective transfer hydrogenation of aryl-alkyl ketones

A series of Mn(i) catalysts with readily accessible and more π-accepting phosphine-amino-phosphinite (P′(O)N(H)P) pincer ligands have been explored for the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of aryl-alkyl ketones which led to good to high enantioselectivities (up to 98%) compared to other reported Mn-based catalysts for such reactions. The easy tunability of the chiral backbone and the phosphine moieties makes P′(O)N(H)P an alternative ligand framework to the well-known PNP-type pincers.

RETRACTED ARTICLE: The Manganese(I)-Catalyzed Asymmetric Transfer Hydrogenation of Ketones: Disclosing the Macrocylic Privilege

The bis(carbonyl) manganese(I) complex [Mn(CO)2(1)]Br (2) with a chiral (NH)2P2 macrocyclic ligand (1) catalyzes the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of polar double bonds with 2-propanol as the hydrogen source. Ketones (43 substrates) are reduced to alcohols in high yields (up to >99 %) and with excellent enantioselectivities (90–99 % ee). A stereochemical model based on attractive CH–π interactions is proposed.

Expanding substrate scope of lipase-catalyzed transesterification by the utilization of liquid carbon dioxide

Secondary alcohols having bulky substituents on both sides of the chiral center are often poor substrates for most lipases. Here we reported that substrate scopes of two of the most used lipases, Candida antarctica lipase B and Burkholderia cepacia lipase, were found to be expanded toward more bulky secondary alcohols such as 1-phenyl-1-dodecanol and 2-methyl-1-phenyl-1-propanol by simply using them in liquid carbon dioxide as a solvent. The effects of solvents, reaction pressure, and pre-treatment of the enzyme with liquid CO2on this acceleration phenomenon were also studied.

Synthesis of new (R)-secondary carbinols with different structures via enzymatic resolution

The present study deals with the biocatalytic enantioselective synthesis of 19 new chiral alcohols with alkyl (C11-C19) and phenyl, substituted phenyl, heteroaromatic, and naphthyl groups 4a-4z with an (R)-configuration and high enan

Asymmetric synthesis of new chiral long chain alcohols

Sixteen new chiral alcohols with alkyl (C11-C19) and aryl, substituted aryl, hetero aryl and biaryl groups 2a-2t were synthesized by three different asymmetric reduction methods from their corresponding ketones 1a-1t. Chiral NaBHsub
