PNO ligand containing planar chiral ferrocene and application thereof

The invention discloses a PNO ligand containing planar chiral ferrocene and application thereof. The PNO ligand containing planar chiral ferrocene is a planar chiral ferrocene-containing and phenol-containing PNO ligand as shown in a general formula (I) or (II) which is described in the specification, or a planar chiral ferrocene-containing and aryl-phosphoric-acid-containingPNO ligand containing as shown in a general formula (III) or (IV) which is described in the specification, or a planar chiral ferrocene-containing and carbon-chiral-phenol-containingPNO ligand as shown in a general formula (V) or (VI) which is described in the specification. The invention provides tridentate PNO ligands and processes for their complexation with transition metal salts or transition metal complexes; the introduction of salicylaldehyde and derivatives thereof, which are simple and easy to obtain, enables the ligands to have a bifunctionalization effect, and -OH in a formed catalyst has stronger acidity and is beneficial to combination with N/O in polar double bonds. Therefore, due to the bifunctionalization effect of the catalyst, the interaction between the catalyst and a substrate can be greatly improved, so a reaction can obtain higher catalytic activity and stereoselectivity.

Iridium-catalyzed highly efficient chemoselective reduction of aldehydes in water using formic acid as the hydrogen source

A water-soluble highly efficient iridium catalyst is developed for the chemoselective reduction of aldehydes to alcohols in water. The reduction uses formic acid as the traceless reducing agent and water as a solvent. It can be carried out in air without the need for inert atmosphere protection. The products can be purified by simple extraction without any column chromatography. The catalyst loading can be as low as 0.005 mol% and the turn-over frequency (TOF) is as high as 73 800 mol mol-1 h-1. A wide variety of functional groups, such as electron-rich or deficient (hetero)arenes and alkenes, alkyloxy groups, halogens, phenols, ketones, esters, carboxylic acids, cyano, and nitro groups, are all well tolerated, indicating excellent chemoselectivity.
