We report a strategy to develop heterogeneous single-site enantioselective catalysts based on naturally occurring amino acids and earth-abundant metals for eco-friendly asymmetric catalysis. The grafting of amino acids within the pores of a metal-organic framework (MOF), followed by post-synthetic metalation with iron precursor, affords highly active and enantioselective (>99 % ee for 10 examples) catalysts for hydrosilylation and hydroboration of carbonyl compounds. Impressively, the MOF-Fe catalyst displayed high turnover numbers of up to 10 000 and was recycled and reused more than 15 times without diminishing the enantioselectivity. MOF-Fe displayed much higher activity and enantioselectivity than its homogeneous control catalyst, likely due to the formation of robust single-site catalyst in the MOF through site-isolation.

Paragraph 0038-0043; 0094-0098, (2021/05/29)
The invention discloses a method for synthesizing a chiral secondary alcohol compound. The method comprises the following step of: reacting a ketone compound in an aprotic organic solvent at room temperature and inert gas atmosphere under the action of a chiral cobalt catalyst and an activating agent by taking a combination of bis(pinacolato)diboron and alcohol or water as a reducing agent to obtain the chiral secondary alcohol compound. According to the method disclosed by the invention, a combination of pinacol diborate and alcohol or water which are cheap, stable and easy to obtain is taken as a reducing agent, and a ketone compound is efficiently reduced to synthesize a corresponding chiral secondary alcohol compound in an aprotic organic solvent under the action of a chiral cobalt catalyst; in a chiral cobalt catalyst adopted by the method, when a chiral ligand is PAOR, an activating agent is NaBHEt3 or NaOtBu and an adopted raw material is aromatic ketone, the yield is 80% or above, and the optical purity is 90% or above; and when the adopted raw material is alkane ketone, the yield can reach 70% or above, and the optical purity can reach 80% or above.

Novel chiral cobalt complex a containing amine(imine)diphosphine PN(H)NP ligand and complex b containing bis(amine)diphosphine PN(H)N(H)P ligand were synthesized. The structures of two complexes were characterized by X-ray crystallography and high resolution mass spectrometry. The catalytic performances of cobalt complexes a and b for asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of ketones under mild conditions were evaluated using 2-propanolisopropanol as solvent and hydrogen source after being activated by 8 equivalents of base. Complex a showed a good reactivity for reduction of ketones, with a turnover number (TON) of up to 555, and a maximum enantiomeric excess (ee) value of up to 91 %. Complex b exhibited inertness for hydrogenation of ketones. Electronic structure studies on a and b were conducted to account for the function of ligands on the catalytic performances.
