Asymmetric hydrogenation of 3,5-Dioxoesters catalyzed by Ru-binap complex: A short step asymmetric synthesis of 6-substituted 5,6-dihydro-2-pyrones
摘要:
Asymmetric hydrogenation of 3,5-dioxoesters 1a-c using Ru2Cl4((R) or (S)-binap)2(NEt3) as the catalyst gave dominantly anti 3,5-dihydroxyesters 2, which were then converted into unsaturated lactones 5a-b (ca. 80% e.e.). The pathway of the hydrogenation reaction was also investigated by asymmetric hydrogenation of (R)- or (S)-5-hydroxy-3-oxoesters 8a-c. It was revealed that the Ru-binap catalyzed hydrogenation of 1a-b proceed dominantly via the beta-diketone mode. A convenient asymmetric synthesis of hydroxylactone 3c and unsaturated lactone 5c was presented.
