Asymmetric hydrogenation of unsaturated morpholines has been developed by using a bisphosphine-rhodium catalyst bearing a large bite angle. With this approach, a variety of 2-substituted chiral morpholines could be obtained in quantitative yields and with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee). The hydrogenated products could be transformed into key intermediates for bioactive compounds.
通过使用具有大咬合角的双膦 - 铑催化剂,已开发出不饱和吗啉的不对称氢化反应。采用这种方法,可以以定量产率和优异的对映选择性(高达99% ee)获得多种2 - 取代的手性吗啉。氢化产物可转化为生物活性化合物的关键中间体。
