Chiral iron(ii)-bis(isonitrile) complexes catalyse the transfer hydrogenation of aromatic ketones with enantioselectivities up to 91% ee, most likely via hydride transfer through imine intermediates, generated by in situ reduction of the isonitrile ligands, whereas iron acts as a Lewis acid to activate the ketone.
手性铁(ii)-双(腈)配合物催化对映选择性高达91%ee的芳族酮的转移加氢反应,最有可能是通过原位还原异腈配体而通过亚胺中间体进行的氢化物转移,而铁起着路易斯酸激活酮。
