Biomimetic transfer hydrogenation of 2-alkoxy- and 2-aryloxyketones with iron–porphyrin catalysts
摘要:
In situ generated iron porphyrins are applied as homogeneous catalysts in the transfer hydrogenation of a-substituted ketones. Using 2-propanol as hydrogen donor various protected 1, 2-hydroxyketones are reduced to the corresponding mono-substituted 1,2-diols in good to excellent yield. Under optimized reaction conditions catalyst turnover frequencies up to 2500 h(-1) have been achieved. (c) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
