α,β‐Unsaturated esters have been employed as substrates in iridium‐catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation. Full conversions and good to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99 % ee) were obtained for a broad range of substrates with both aromatic‐ and aliphatic substituents on the prochiral carbon. The hydrogenated products are highly useful as building blocks in the synthesis of a variety of natural

This study identifies a series of Ir‐bicyclic phosphoroamidite–oxazoline/thiazole catalytic systems that can hydrogenate a wide range of minimallyfunctionalizedolefins (including E‐ and Z‐tri‐ and disubstituted substrates, vinylsilanes, enol phosphinates, tri‐ and disubstituted alkenylboronic esters, and α,β‐unsaturated enones) in high enantioselectivities (ee values up to 99 %) and conversions.
