[reaction: see text] A new method for the one-pot asymmetric reductive amination of prochiral aliphatic ketones has been developed. The previously unexplored reagent combination of Ti(O(i)Pr)(4)/Raney Ni/H(2) in the presence of (R)- or (S)-alpha-methylbenzylamine provides good to excellent yield (76-90%) and diastereomeric excess (72-98%). The second step, hydrogenolysis, provides the corresponding primary amine in high yield (88-93%) and with uncompromised enantiomeric excess.
[反应:见正文] 已开发出一种用于前手性脂肪族酮一锅法不对称还原胺化的新方法。在(R)-或(S)-α-甲基苄胺存在下,Ti(O(i)Pr)4/阮内镍/H2这种先前未被探索的试剂组合可提供良好至优异的产率(76 - 90%)和非对映体过量(72 - 98%)。第二步,氢解反应以高产率(88 - 93%)提供相应的伯胺,且对映体过量不受影响。
