Abstractmagnified imageA catalytic enantioselective hydrogenation of racemic α‐aryloxy aldehydes via dynamic kinetic resolution has been developed by using (diamine)(spirodiphosphine)ruthenium(II) chloride [RuCl2(SDPs)(diamine)] catalysts. Employing this new reaction system a variety of optically active β‐aryloxy primary alcohols were synthesized in high yields and moderate to good enantioselectivities.
