Chiral bis(oxazolinylphenyl)amines proved to be efficient auxiliary ligands for iron and cobalt catalysts with high activity for asymmetrichydrosilylation of ketones and asymmetric conjugate hydrosilylation of enones.
Just a little bit: The 1/FeCl2 complex was activated in the presence of Zn and exhibited catalytic activity for the hydrosilanereduction of ketones to give the S‐configured alcohol. In contrast, the mixed‐catalyst system of 1 and Fe(OAc)2 provides the R enantiomer. This approach provides both enantiomers from a single chiral source by the addition of a small amount of Zn.

concentration for the overall process. Moreover, both isolated enzymes and whole cells exhibited excellent activities which allowed to obtain a set of chiral biaryl alcohols in good yields and very high enantiomeric excess (>99 %).

Manipulation of dual active centers via an integrated immobilization strategy can overcome the restriction of homogeneous catalysis in a sequential organic transformation. Herein, by utilizing hollow-shell-structured silica, hydrogen-bonding immobilization via a ship-in-a-bottle synthesis locks a Pd(carbene) center in a nanocage and covalent-bonding immobilization tethers chiral Ru(diamine) centers

We evaluated Arthrobacter atrocyaneus (R1AF57) as producer of oxidoreductases for oxidative kinetic resolution of racemic secondary alcohols via oxidation reaction. This bacterium was isolated from Amazon soil samples using medium enriched with (RS)-1-(4-methylphenyl)ethanol as a carbon source. The kinetic resolution of several secondary alcohols through enantioselective oxidation mediated by resting cells and growing cells of A. atrocyaneus was efficiently achieved for the most alcohols. In general, it was possible to obtain only the (S)-enantiomer from (RS)-1-arylethanols. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
