Readily Available Chiral Phosphine−Aminophosphine Ligands for Highly Efficient Rh-Catalyzed Asymmetric Hydrogenation of α-Enol Ester Phosphonates and α-Enamido Phosphonates
摘要:
[GRAPHICS]A new class of unsymmetrical hybrid phosphine-aminophosphine ligands has been prepared from commercially available, inexpensive (S)-1-phenylethylamine through a concise synthetic procedure. These ligands are not very sensitive to air and moisture, and displayed good enantioselectivities in the Rh-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of various dimethyl alpha-benzoyloxyethenephosphonates bearing beta-aryl, beta-alkyl, and beta-alkoxy substituents and N-benzyloxycarbonyl alpha-enamido phosphonates, in which up to 97% ee was obtained. A side-by-side comparison study disclosed that these new phosphine-aminophosphine ligands showed better enantioselectivity than BoPhoz ligands.
