A highly efficient and enantioselective Ir-catalyzed hydrogenation of unsaturated sulfones was developed. Chiral cyclic and acyclic sulfones were produced in excellent enantioselectivities (up to 98% ee). Coupled with the Ramberg-Bäcklund rearrangement, this reaction offers a novel route to chiral allylic and homoallylic compounds in excellent enantioselectivities (up to 97% ee) and high yields (up to 94%).
发展了一种高效和对映选择性的 Ir 催化不饱和砜的氢化反应。手性环状和非环状砜以优异的对映选择性(高达 98%ee)生成。与 Ramberg-Bäcklund 重排偶联,该反应以优异的对映选择性(高达 97%ee)和高收率(高达 94%)提供了一种合成手性烯丙基和同烯丙基化合物的新途径。
