The first asymmetric hydrogenation of α-purine nucleobase-substituted α,β-unsaturated esters, catalyzed by a chiral rhodium (R)-Synphos catalyst, has been developed. A wide range of mono- and disubstituted acrylates were successfully hydrogenated under very mild conditions in high yields with good to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee). This method provides a convenient approach to the synthesis of a new kind of optically pure acyclic nucleoside and Tenofovir analogues.
手性铑(R)-Synphos 催化剂催化的α-嘌呤核苷取代的α,β-不饱和酯的首次不对称氢化反应已经开发出来。在非常温和的条件下,该方法可以成功地氢化各种单取代和二取代的丙烯酸酯,以高收率和优异的对映选择性(高达 99%ee)得到良好到优秀的结果。该方法为合成新型光学纯无环核苷和替诺福韦类似物提供了一种便捷的途径。
