Asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of various simple aromatic ketones by the Ru-TsDPEN catalyst was shown to be feasible in aqueous HCOONa without calling for any catalyst modification, furnishing ee's of up to 95% and significantly faster rates than in the HCOOH-NEt(3) azeotrope.
Ru-TsDPEN催化剂对各种简单芳香酮的不对称转移氢化反应在水相HCOONa中被证明是可行的,无需对催化剂进行任何改性,得到的对映体过量值高达95%,且反应速率比在HCOOH-NEt(3)共沸物中显著更快。
