Design and synthesis of the second generation C2-symmetric 4,8-endo,endo-bis(alkoxy) bicyclo[3.3.1]nona-2,6-diene ligands possessing additional 4,8-exo,exo substituents is reported. The 4,8-exo,exo groups provide a further element for fine-tuning of the ligand structure by enforcing conformational rigidity of the 4,8-endo,endo side chains. Such tetrasubstituted bicyclo[3.3.1]nona-2,6-dienes were employed as steering ligands in the rhodium-catalyzed arylation of cyclic enones with arylboronic acids, providing the corresponding 1,4-addition products in good to excellent yields (69–99 %) and enantioselectivities up to 99 % ee.

A C1-symmetric chiral bisphosphine, FcPh-Binap (1), which possesses a single diferrocenylphosphino moiety together with a conventional Ph2P-substituent, was prepared in enantiomerically pure forms. Ligand 1 is sterically less demanding than Fc-Segphos (A)

Transition-metal-catalyzed reductive coupling reactions have emerged as powerful protocols to construct C-C bonds. However, the development of enantioselective C(sp3)-C(sp3) reductive coupling remains challenging. Herein, we report a highly regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselective reductive homocoupling of allylic acetates through cooperative palladium and photoredox catalysis using diisopropylethylamine or Hantzsch ester as a homogeneous organic reductant. This straightforward protocol enables the stereoselective construction of C(sp3)-C(sp3) bonds under mild reaction conditions. A series of C2-symmetrical chiral 1,5-dienes were easily prepared with excellent enantioselectivities (up to >99% ee), diastereoselectivities (up to >95:5 dr), and regioselectivities (up to >95:5 rr). The resultant chiral 1,5-dienes can be directly used as chiral ligands in asymmetric synthesis, and they can be also transformed into other valuable chiral ligands.

The enantioselective hydrogenation of endocyclic enones has been a historical problem for homogeneous catalysis. We herein report an efficient method to reduce endocyclic enones with molecular hydrogen. Catalyzed by a rhodium/Zhaophos complex, a variety of enones with five-, six- or seven-member ring were hydrogenated with high enantioselectivity (92%—99% ee). Excellent chemo- and enantioselectivity demonstrated this method was successfully applied in the enantioselective hydrogenation of citral to produce enantio-enriched citronellal.

We present a novel strategy for organocatalytic transfer hydrogenations relying on an ion-paired catalyst of natural l-amino acids as main source of chirality in combination with racemic, atropisomeric phosphoric acids as counteranion. The combination of a chiral cation with a structurally flexible anion resulted in a novel chiral framework for asymmetric transfer hydrogenations with enhanced selectivity through synergistic effects. The optimized catalytic system, in combination with a Hantzsch ester as hydrogen source for biomimetic transfer hydrogenation, enabled high enantioselectivity and excellent yields for a series of α,β-unsaturated cyclohexenones under mild conditions. Moreover, owing to the use of readily available and chiral pool-derived building blocks, it could be prepared in a straightforward and significantly cheaper way compared to the current state of the art.

Organic solvent-free asymmetric 1,4-addition of arylboronic acids to enone substrates was performed by using a chiral rhodium complex catalyst developed as a homogeneous catalyst. Reactions catalyzed by [RhOH(cod)]2 with chiral diphosphine ligands in liquid- or solid-state proceeded to give chiral 1,4-adducts in high yield with enantioselectivities up to ca. 100 % ee by conventional stirring without mechanochemistry such as ball milling. The solid-state reactions under a static condition also proceeded, but with a slight decrease in enantioselectivity of the 1,4-adduct. SEM observations of the solid-state reactions indicated that no nanoparticles catalyst was generated. The organic solvent-free reaction could be applied to gram-scale synthesis by performing a greener purification using a minimum necessary organic solvent.

An axially chiral bisphosphine, Fc-Segphos (1), which possesses diferrocenylphosphino-donor moieties, was prepared as a racemate, and its optical resolution was achieved by the use of chiral HPLC. Ligand 1 coordinated to a palladium(II) cation in a bidentate fashion to construct a unique chiral environment at the palladium center due to the sterically demanding ferrocenyl groups. Ligand (R)-1 was applied in the palladium-catalyzed asymmetric synthesis of axially chiral allenes showing good enantioselectivity of up to 92% ee. In general, (R)-1 displayed better enantioselectivity than the parent Segphos in the palladium-catalyzed reaction, and the Pd/(R)-1 species showed up to 18% ee enhancement over the (R)-Segphos-derived palladium catalyst.

trans-Cyclooctenes serve as asymmetric ligands for the rhodium-catalyzed 1,4-additions of organotin reagents to enones. We demonstrate, for the first time, that these chiral olefins can provide efficient coordination spheres for asymmetric metal catalysis. As the asymmetric environment around the reaction site is constructed by the trans-cyclooctene framework, the introduction of a substituent at the allylic position further improves enantioselectivity to 93 % ee. These findings provide new chiral framework designs for the asymmetric ligands of metal catalysts.
