highly enantioselectivehydrogenation of 2,4‐disubstituted 1,5‐benzodiazepines using chiral cationicrutheniumdiaminecatalysts (R,R)‐1 has been developed (see scheme; BArF=tetrakis(3,5‐bistrifluoromethylphenyl)borate). Either enantiomer of 2,4‐diaryl‐2,3,4,5‐tetrahydro‐1H‐benzodiazepine derivatives could be obtained by using the same enantiomer of ligand but in the presence of a different achiral counteranion
