Asymmetric hydrogenation of unprotected NH imines catalyzed by rhodium/bis(phosphine)‐thiourea provided chiral amines with up to 97 % yield and 95 % ee. 1H NMR studies, coupled with control experiments, implied that catalytic chloride‐bound intermediates were involved in the mechanism through a dual hydrogen‐bonding interaction. Deuteration experiments proved that the hydrogenation proceeded through
由铑/双(膦)-硫脲催化的未保护的NH亚胺的不对称氢化提供了手性胺,产率高达97%,ee值高达95% 。1 H NMR 研究与对照实验相结合,表明催化氯化物结合中间体通过双氢键相互作用参与了该机制。氘化实验证明氢化反应是通过与亚胺一致的途径进行的。
