Highly enantioselective hydrogenative desymmetrization of bicyclic imides has been developed with chiral Cp*Ru(PN) catalysts. The present hydrogenation directly provides stereochemically well-defined cyclic compounds with excellent enantiomeric exessses, which might otherwise require a detour to reach.
手性 Cp*Ru(PN)催化剂实现了双环亚胺的高对映选择性氢化去对称化。该氢化反应可直接立体选择性地构建具有优异对映过量的环状化合物,而无需迂回构建。
