The use of an enantiomerically pure amino alcohol, coupled to a transfer hydrogenation process, in the asymmetric catalysis of the reduction of ketones to alcohols, is described. The process works well for unfunctionalised ketones, affording e.e.s of up to 98%, and excellent conversions. We have recently extended, for the first time in this application, the scope of the methodology to the reductions of a-heteroatom substituted substrates, through the use of the appropriate protecting groups on each atom.
描述了一种使用手性纯氨基醇与转移氢化过程结合的非对称催化方法,将酮还原为醇。该过程对未功能化的酮效果良好,提供高达98%的诠释率和优良的转化率。我们最近首次扩展了该方法在这一应用范围的适用性,通过在每个原子上使用适当的保护基团,对α-杂原子取代底物进行了还原。
