A variety of chiral Ti(IV) complexes were reduced in situ with zinc in acetonitrile. The resulting chiral Ti(III) complexes were found to catalyze the pinacol coupling reaction stereoselectively. The best results were obtained from the Ti-SALEN complex, which was found to be an efficient catalyst at 10 mol % concentration. Various aromatic aldehydes were coupled to obtain chiral hydrobenzoin derivatives

Opticallyactivehydrobenzoins are very important building blocks for further derivation of biologically active complexes, natural products, and pharmaceutical compounds. In this paper, A practical approach has been developed for asymmetrichydrogenation of benzils with Ru(OTf)(TsDPEN)(η6‐cymene) as a pre‐catalyst in methanol. Therefore, a series of chiral hydrobenzoins was synthesized in good yields

Catalytic asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of rac-furoin and furil produces hydrofuroin with up to 99% ee and 9:1 dr. This reaction provides an exceptionally easy access to optically active hydrofuroins in two straightforward steps from biomass-derived furfural (global production 200 000-300 000 t annually) using benzoin condensation.

Enantioselective pinacol coupling reaction of aromatic aldehydes catalyzed by chiral vanadium complexes
The asymmetric pinacol coupling of aromatic aldehydes by chiral salan-vanadium complexes as effective catalysts is reported. Chiral 1,2-diols were obtained with high diastereoselectivities (up to 90/10) and moderate to high enantioselectivities (up to 82% ee). The possible mechanism of the pinacol coupling reaction is also discussed. (C) 2009 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.
