The asymmetric hydroformylation of vinyl heteroarenes (vinylfurans and vinylthiophenes) was investigated by using Rh(I)-BINAPHOS derivatives as a catalyst. The hydroformylation of vinylthiophenes 1 gave the corresponding branched aldehydes 2 with high enantiopurities as major products. Oxidation of the aldehydes 2 successfully afforded alpha-heteroarylpropanoic acids 4 in good yields. In addition, the aldehydes 2 were reduced to alcohols 5 without loss of enantiomeric excess.
使用铑(I)-联萘磷衍生物作为催化剂,研究了乙烯基杂芳烃(乙烯基呋喃和乙烯基噻吩)的不对称氢甲酰化反应。乙烯基噻吩1的氢甲酰化反应以高对映体纯度的相应支链醛2作为主要产物。醛2的氧化反应成功地以良好的产率得到了α-杂芳基丙酸4。此外,醛2被还原为醇5,且对映体过量没有损失。
