摘要: MatPhos, a good mate for hard tasks: The asymmetric hydrogenation of 1-alkyl vinyl esters, thwarted so far by mediocre ee values and low activities, can now be achieved with MatPhos/Rh catalysts 96-99% variety substrates at catalyst loadings (0.1-1 mol %) under mild conditions (5-20 bar H2, room temperature). After hydrolysis, the corresponding chiral secondary alkyl alcohols obtained in high enantiopurities providing general practical route to this important product class.
