The mechanistic details of the (PhBPE)Co-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation enamides are investigated using computational and experimental approaches. Four possibilities compared: a direct Co(0)/Co(II) redox path, metathesis pathway, nonredox Co(II) mechanism featuring an aza-metallacycle, possible enamide–imine tautomerization pathway. results indicate that operative may depend on type enamide. Explicit solvent is found to be crucial for stabilization transition states proper estimation enantiomeric excess. combined highlight complexity base-metal-catalyzed hydrogenations but do also provide guiding principles understanding these systems, where protic substrates can expected open up pathways.

Published: July 2, 2024

Chiral phosphorus ligands play a crucial role in asymmetric catalysis for the efficient synthesis of useful optically active compounds. They are largely categorized into two classes: backbone chirality and P-stereogenic ligands. Most reported belong to former class. Privileged ones such as BINAP DuPhos frequently employed wide range catalytic transformations. In contrast, latter class has remained small family many years mainly because their synthetic difficulty. The late 1990s saw emergence novel with superior enantioinduction ability Rh-catalyzed hydrogenation reactions. Since then, numerous have been synthesized used This Review summarizes thus far, including stereochemical electronic properties that afford high excellent enantioselectivities. Examples reactions use this described together applications construction key intermediates natural products therapeutic agents. literature covered dates back 1968 up until December 2023, centering on studies published later years.

Investigation on asymmetric hydrogenation of olefins is great importance in both pharmaceutical molecule synthesis and chemical industry due to the high demand for enantiopure compounds. The established methods often require geometrically pure olefins. enantioconvergent reaction provided possibility access a single stereoisomer via E/Z-olefin mixtures; however, polar functional group next carbon-carbon double bond was usually necessary. Here, we reported cobalt-catalyzed readily available minimally functionalized mixtures. This strategy shows good tolerance provides an alternative means transformation. preliminary mechanistic studies indicated that isomerization key achieve convergent

Chiral α-substituted ethylphosphonate and ethylphosphine oxide compounds are widely used in drugs, pesticides, ligands. However, their catalytic asymmetric synthesis is still rare. Of the only hydrogenation methods available at present, all cases use rare metal catalysts. Herein, we report an efficient earth-abundant transition-metal nickel catalyzed affording corresponding chiral products with up to 99 % yield, 96 ee (enantiomeric excess) (99 ee, after recrystallization) 1000 S/C (substrate/catalyst); this also first study on of terminal olefins using a catalyst under hydrogen atmosphere. The mechanism was investigated via deuterium-labelling experiments calculations which indicate that two added atoms come from gas. Additionally, it believed reaction involves NiII rather than Ni0 cyclic process based weak attractive interactions between Ni olefin substrate.
