Use of tridentate TsDPEN/pyridine ligands in ruthenium-catalysed asymmetric reduction of ketones
摘要:
A series of enantiomerically pure tridentate ligands based on the 1,2-diphenylethane-1,2-diamine structure, containing additional pyridine groups, was prepared and tested in asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of ketones using Ru-3(CO)(12) as a metal source. Alcohols were formed in up to 93% ee in the best cases, and good results were obtained with ortho-haloarylketones. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

A new type of chiral tridentate ligands were prepared and their Zn complexes were examined for the asymmetric Friedel‐Craftsalkylation of indoles with nitroalkenes, which gave rise to good yields and moderate enantioselectivities.

A methodology for the combinatorial synthesis of bidentate ligands - allowing direct screening of reaction products without the need for isolation or purification - has been employed in a zinc catalyzed hydrosilylation. This reaction allowed the robustness of the methodology to be examined, by employing it in a challenging case where the metal complex is not pre-formed prior to catalysis. Four different ligand families have been examined: imines, aminals, bis-imines and oxazolines and related compounds, with a small library of each type produced and directly screened in the reaction. Three ligands providing enantioselectivities of 50% or more in this very challenging reaction were identified, and ees and conversions were equivalent whether the ligand was obtained as a crude mixture from a library synthesis or as an isolated, purified compound.
