A cobalt-catalyzed asymmetric reduction of β,β-dialkyl α,β-unsaturated esters with polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS) was reported to deliver the corresponding esters containing a chiral trialkyl carbon center at β-position with up to 97 % yield and 98 % ee. The chiral tridentate ligand oxazoline iminopyridine (OIP) could perform well for the asymmetric reduction instead of chiral bidentate ligands. This operationally simple protocol shows a broad scope of substrates using one equivalent of readily available PMHS as a cheap and easy-to-handle reductive reagent.

The asymmetric isomerization of primary allylic alcohols to chiral aldehydes using iridium-catalysts bearing P,N-MaxPHOX ligands has been studied. These catalysts can be fine-tuned as they present three different stereogenic centers to modulate both the reactivity and enantioselectivity of a family of different substrates. The experimental part is supported by a DFT study of the reaction mechanism, which provides new insights into the key steps of this transformation.
Catalytic hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid derivatives using copper(i)/N-heterocyclic carbene complexes
Zimmermann, Birte M.,Kobosil, Sarah C. K.,Teichert, Johannes F.
supporting information, p. 2293 - 2296 (2019/02/27)
A simple and air-stable copper(i)/N-heterocyclic carbene complex enables the catalytic hydrogenation of enoates and enamides, hitherto unreactive substrates employing homogeneous copper catalysis and H2 as a terminal reducing agent. This atom economic transformation replaces commonly employed hydrosilanes and can also be carried out in an asymmetric fashion.
