A highly enantioselective catalytic hydrogenation of cyclic enones was achieved by using the combination of a cationic Rh1 complex, (S)-5,5′-bis{di(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-methoxyphenylphosphino)}-4, 4′-bi-1,3-benzodioxole (DTBM-SEGPHOS), and (CH2CH 2PPh3Br)2. The presence of an s-cis C=C bond isopropylidene moiety on the cyclic enone influenced the enantioselectivity of the hydrogenation. Thus, the hydrogenation of 3-alkyl-6-isopropylidene-2- cyclohexen-1-one, which contains both s-cis and s-trans enones, proceeded in excellent enantioselectivity (up to 98% ee). To obtain high enantio- and s-trans selectivities, the addition of a halogen source to the cationic Rh complex was the essential step. With the key step of the s-trans selective asymmetric hydrogenation of piperitenone, we demonstrated a new synthetic method for optically pure (-)-menthol via three atom-economical hydrogenations. Moreover, we found that the complete s-trans and s-cis C=C bond selective reactions were also realized by the proper choice of both the chiral ligands and halides.

A catalytic amount of a chiral phosphine I-copper iodide complex catalyzes the conjugate addition of organomagnesium chlorides to cycloalkenones and pentenolide to give the corresponding addition products in 94-72% ee.

Reaction rate constants for the catalytic step HLAD-NADH + ketone * HLAD-NAD+ + alcohol in the HLAD-catalyzed reduction of 3-alkyl- and 4-alkylcyclohexanones are determined from initial rate measurements in the coenzyme recycling system ketone-ethanol-NAD+-HLAD.By rate measurements at several temperatures, activation parameters were determined and isokinetic relationships tracked down.Two different isokinetic relationships show that the 3-alkylcyclohexanones pass through an other type of transition state than cyclohexanone and the 4-alkylcyclohexanones, which means that they have a different arrangement on the HLAD-NADH complex.The results are rationalized in view of the most recent principles on nucleophilic additions to carbonyl functions.The resulting model for the HLAD-catalyzed reduction adequately explains the observed rate accelerating and decelerating effects and the stereochemistry of the reduction as well.
