A collection of chiral quinuclidine ligands, derived from the Cinchona alkaloids quinine and quinidine, has been evaluated in the catalytic asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of aromatic ketones. It was fond that [IrCl(COD)]2 complexes of the diamines QCI-Amine and QCD-Amine gave the most active catalysts, capable of reducing a range of aromatic ketones with excellent conversions and good enantioselectivities

奎宁环配体的集合已在芳族酮的催化不对称转移氢化中得到了评估。令人高兴的是,二胺QCI-胺和QCD-胺的[IrCl(COD)] 2络合物提供了最具活性的催化剂,能够还原一系列芳族酮,并具有出色的转化率和良好的对映选择性(最高95%ee)。这些是报道的基于喹uc啶核不对称转化的
配体的最佳选择性,并提倡以假对映体形式商购的这些
配体将在该催化方法和其他催化方法中得到实际应用。
