Chiral phosphoric acidcatalyzed enantioselective transfer hydrogenation of hydroxylactams has been realized to provide enantioenriched tetrahydro-β-carbolines in dioxane at room temperature (up to 94% yield, 90% ee).
A palladium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of unprotected 3-substituted indoles was developed, providing a series of 3-substituted indolines in excellent yields with ≤94.4:5.6 er. The large sterically hindered bisphosphine ligand played a crucial role in the enantioselective control. In addition, the gram-scale hydrogenation experiment and product derivatizations were performed successfully.
开发了一种钯催化的未保护的 3-取代吲哚的不对称氢化,以 ≤94.4:5.6 er 的优异收率提供了一系列 3-取代二氢吲哚。大的空间位阻双膦配体在对映选择性控制中起着至关重要的作用。此外,成功地进行了克级加氢实验和产品衍生化。
