Two beta-receptor agonists (-)-denopamine and (-)-arbutamine were prepared in good yields and enantioselectivities by asymmetrichydrogenation of unprotected aminoketones for the first time by using Rh catalysts bearing electron-donating phosphine ligands. A series of alpha-primary and secondaryaminoketones were synthesized and hydrogenated to produce various 1,2-amino alcohols in good yields and
