Novel axially chiral biphenyl diphosphine ligands Enm-BridgePhos, bearing an ether chain bridge at the 5,5′-position of the biphenyl backbone, have been developed and successfully applied in the Rh-catalyzed enantioselective desymmetric hydrogenation of α-acetamido-1,3-indanediones, providing chiral α-acetamido-β-hydroxybenzocyclic pentones in high yields (up to 97%) and with excellent enantioselectivities
新型轴向手性联苯二膦配体E n m -BridgePhos,在联苯主链的5,5′-位上带有醚链桥,已被开发并成功应用于Rh催化的α-acetamido-1的对映选择性不对称氢化反应,3-茚满二酮,以高产率(高达 97%)提供手性 α-乙酰氨基-β-羟基苯并环戊酮,并具有优异的对映选择性(高达 99% ee)。该反应可以在克级规模上进行,相应的产物可作为合成手性螺苄基异喹啉生物碱类似物的重要中间体。晶体结构分析和DFT计算均表明E nm -BridgePhos-Rh配合物的大二面角与优异的对映选择性密切相关。
