Rh(II)-Cp∗–TsDPEN catalyzed aqueous asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of chromenones into saturated alcohol: CC and CO reduction in one step
摘要:
As an efficient catalyst for asymmetric transfer hydrogenation reaction (ATH reaction) of alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones, Rh-Cp*-TsDPEN (Cp* = 1,2,3,4,5-pentamethylcyclopenta-1,3-diene, TsDPEN = N-(p-toluenesulfonyl)-1,2-diphenyl- ethylenediamine) shows high chemoselectivity on C=O and C=C reduction. In our method, both C=O and C=C bonds in a variety of chromenone derivatives were reduced efficiently in aqueous media, resulting in at least 98% ee and up to 99% yields in a convenient way without further purification. The product was a useful intermediate for deriving chiral chroman-4-amine, which was reported as an effective agent against hypotension and inflammatory pain by inhibiting human bradykinin B1 receptor.
