The asymmetric hydrogenation of fluorinated olefins is an efficient pathway towards the synthesis of chiral fluorine-containing compounds. This paper described metal-free asymmetric hydrogenation of 3-fluorinated chromones with the use of readily available achiral borane and chiral oxazoline as an FLP catalyst for the first time. A variety of optically active 3-fluorochroman-4-ones were obtained in high yields with up to 88% ee.
氟代烯烃的不对称氢化是合成手性含氟化合物的有效途径。本文首次报道了无金属条件下,利用易得的非手性硼烷和手性恶唑啉作为 FLP 催化剂,对 3-氟色酮进行不对称氢化反应。多种光学活性的 3-氟色满-4-酮以高达 88%的对映选择性获得高产率。
