pathway to these amines is directasymmetric reductive amination (DARA) of prochiral ketones. This paper shows that a wide range of aliphatic ketones can be directly aminated under hydrogenation conditions, affording chiral amines with good to excellent yields and with enantioselectivities up to 96% ee. The catalysis is effected by the cooperative action of a cationic Cp*Ir(III) complex and its phosphate
手性胺是精细化工、医药和农化产品中普遍存在的官能团之一,这些胺最方便、经济和生态友好的合成途径是前手性酮的直接不对称还原胺化(DARA)。这篇论文表明,在氢化条件下可以直接胺化范围广泛的脂肪族酮,从而提供具有良好到极好的产率和高达 96% ee 的对映选择性的手性胺。催化作用受阳离子 Cp*Ir(III) 络合物及其磷酸盐反阴离子的协同作用的影响。

A method for the synthesis of enantiomerically enriched secondary amines with excellent ee values through the tandem intermolecular hydroamination/transfer hydrogenation of alkynes using a “gold(I) complex−chiral Brønsted acid” protocol is developed. The catalysis works for a wide variety of aryl, alkenyl, and aliphatic alkynes as well as anilines with different electronic properties.
