An iridium/f-amphol catalytic system for the enantioselective hydrogenation of α-substituted β-ketoesters via dynamic kinetic resolution is reported. The desired anti products were obtained in high yields (up to 98%) with good diastereoselectivity (up to 96:4 diastereometic ratio (dr)) and excellent enantioselectivity (up to >99% enantiomeric excess (ee)). A catalytic model is proposed to explain the

The first method for the reduction of α-keto substituted acrylate compounds by Hantzsch ester in water under the catalysis of thiourea has been developed. The products were isolated in moderate to high yields (38–95%). These products are important intermediates in the synthesis of a series of natural products and other biologically active molecules.
A Pd-catalyst with benzothiazole carbene as ligands allows, in tetrabutylammonium bromide melt as solvent, very fast and efficient reactions of bromoaromatics with 3-hydroxy-2-methylenealkanoates to give beta -arylketones. (C) 2001 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
