摘要
Ruthenium dimer 6 (readily available in two steps from TsDPEN) is converted directly to monomeric asymmetric transfer hydrogenation catalyst 3 in situ under the conditions employed for ketone reduction. Catalyst 3 is a significantly more active catalyst for this application than the untethered derivative, exhibits higher enantioselectivities across a range of substrates, and appears to be highly stable to the reaction conditions. It is active at loadings of as low as 0.01 mol %, and reductions at the 0.1 mol % level are complete within 20 min at 80 °C without significant loss of enantioselectivity.
