A highly efficient asymmetric hydrogenation of a series of γ-keto acid derivatives, including γ-keto acids, esters, and amides, using a Ni-(R,R)-QuinoxP? complex as the catalyst has been developed to afford chiral γ-hydroxy acid derivatives with excellent enantioselectivities, up to 99.9% ee. This method provides not only an economical one-pot approach for the synthesis of chiral γ-lactones but also access to (S)-norfluoxetine, an inhibitor of neural serotonin reuptake and an essential intermediate for pharmaceutical synthesis.

A RuPHOX?Ru catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of γ-keto acids has been developed, affording the corresponding enantiopure γ-lactones in high yields and with up to 97% ee. The reaction could be performed on a gram scale with a relatively low catalyst loading (up to 10000 S/C) under the indicated reaction conditions and the resulting products can be transformed to several enantiopure building blocks, biologically active compounds and enantiopure drugs. (Figure presented.).

An asymmetric hydrogenation of aroylacrylic acids catalyzed by RuPHOX-Ru catalyst has been developed, affording the corresponding chiral γ-lactones in high yields and with up to 93% ee. The methodology has the advantage of utilizing easily accessible substrates and has therefore expand the scope of the resulting chiral γ-lactones. Furthermore, high catalytic efficiency was achieved in that the reduction of both the C[dbnd]C and C[dbnd]O double bonds was achieved in one step. The current work provides an alternative and convenient pathway for the synthesis of a wide range of chiral γ-lactones.
Enantioselective ketone hydroacylation using noyori's transfer hydrogenation catalyst

An enantioselective ketone hydroacylation enables the direct preparation of lactones from keto alcohols. The alcohol is oxidized in situ to an aldehyde, obviating the need to prepare sensitive keto aldehyde substrates. Noyori's asymmetric transfer hydroge
