Most ligands applied for asymmetric hydrogenation are synthesized via multistep reactions with expensive chemical reagents. Herein, a series of novel and easily accessed cinchona-alkaloid-based NNP ligands have been developed in two steps. By combining [Ir(COD)Cl]2, 39 ketones including aromatic, heteroaryl, and alkyl ketones have been hydrogenated, all affording valuable chiral alcohols with 96.0-99.9% ee. A plausible reaction mechanism was discussed by NMR, HRMS, and DFT, and an activating model involving trihydride was verified.

The Ru-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of ketones with chiral diamine and monodentate achiral phosphine has been developed. A wide range of ketones were hydrogenated to afford the corresponding chiral secondary alcohols in good to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 98.1% ee). In addition, an appropriate mechanism for the asymmetric hydrogenation was proposed and verified by NMR spectroscopy.
Dynamic Kinetic Resolution of Alcohols by Enantioselective Silylation Enabled by Two Orthogonal Transition-Metal Catalysts
Oestreich, Martin,Seliger, Jan
, p. 247 - 251 (2020/10/29)
A nonenzymatic dynamic kinetic resolution of acyclic and cyclic benzylic alcohols is reported. The approach merges rapid transition-metal-catalyzed alcohol racemization and enantioselective Cu-H-catalyzed dehydrogenative Si-O coupling of alcohols and hydrosilanes. The catalytic processes are orthogonal, and the racemization catalyst does not promote any background reactions such as the racemization of the silyl ether and its unselective formation. Often-used ruthenium half-sandwich complexes are not suitable but a bifunctional ruthenium pincer complex perfectly fulfills this purpose. By this, enantioselective silylation of racemic alcohol mixtures is achieved in high yields and with good levels of enantioselection.

Enzymatic reactions through mononuclear metal hydrides are unknown in nature, despite the prevalence of such intermediates in the reactions of synthetic transition-metal catalysts. If metalloenzymes could react through abiotic intermediates like these, then the scope of enzyme-catalysed reactions would expand. Here we show that zinc-containing carbonic anhydrase enzymes catalyse hydride transfers from silanes to ketones with high enantioselectivity. We report mechanistic data providing strong evidence that the process involves a mononuclear zinc hydride. This work shows that abiotic silanes can act as reducing equivalents in an enzyme-catalysed process and that monomeric hydrides of electropositive metals, which are typically unstable in protic environments, can be catalytic intermediates in enzymatic processes. Overall, this work bridges a gap between the types of transformation in molecular catalysis and biocatalysis. [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

Herein we report the synthesis and application of a versatile class of N-heterocyclic carbene ligands based on an imidazo[1,5-a]pyridine-3-ylidine backbone that is fused to a chiral oxazoline auxiliary. The key step in the synthesis of these ligands involves the installation of the oxazoline functionality via a microwave-assisted condensation of a cyano-azolium salt with a wide variety of 2-amino alcohols. The resulting chiral bidentate NHC-oxazoline ligands form stable complexes with rhodium(I) that are efficient catalysts for the enantioselective hydrosilylation of structurally diverse ketones. The corresponding secondary alcohols are isolated in good yields (typically >90%) with good to excellent enantioselectivities (80-93% ee). The reported hydrosilylation occurs at ambient temperatures (40 °C), with excellent functional group tolerability. Even ketones bearing heterocyclic substituents (e.g., pyridine or thiophene) or complex organic architectures are hydrosilylated efficiently, which is discussed further in this report.

An efficient iridium catalyst composed of a simple and commercially available o-methoxytriphenylphosphine and 9-Amino (9-deoxy) epi-cinchonine was applied to the asymmetric hydrogenation of heteroaromatic ketones. A range of simple heteroaromatic ketones could be hydrogenated with good to excellent enantioselectivities and high activities. In particular, thiophene ketones and furyl ketones furnished 98.6% ee with up to 2.18 × 104(1/h) TOF. This catalytic system can be of practical value.

The application of a triazole-substituted chiral iodoarene in a direct enantioselective hydroxylation of alkyl arenes is reported. This method allows the rapid synthesis of chiral benzyl alcohols in high yields and stereocontrol, despite its nontemplated nature. In a cascade activation consisting of an initial irradiation-induced radical C-H-bromination and a consecutive enantioconvergent hydroxylation, the iodoarene catalyst has a dual role. It initiates the radical bromination in its oxidized state through an in-situ-formed bromoiodane and in the second, Cu-catalyzed step, it acts as a chiral ligand. This work demonstrates the ability of a chiral aryl iodide catalyst acting both as an oxidant and as a chiral ligand in a highly enantioselective C-H-activating transformation. Furthermore, this concept presents an enantioconvergent hydroxylation with high selectivity using a synthetic catalyst.

The asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of ketones using isopropyl alcohol (IPA) as hydrogen donor in the presence of novel manganese catalysts is explored. The selective and active systems are easily generated in situ from [MnBr(CO)5] and inexpensive C2-symmeric bisoxalamide ligands. Under the optimized reaction conditions, the Mn-derived catalyst gave higher enantioselectivity compared with the related ruthenium catalyst.
