Asymmetric Synthesis of Chiral Primary Amines by Ruthenium-Catalyzed Direct Reductive Amination of Alkyl Aryl Ketones with Ammonium Salts and Molecular H2

TL;DR: A ruthenium/C3-TunePhos catalytic system has been identified for highly efficient direct reductive amination of simple ketones and excellent enantiocontrol was achieved with a wide range of alkyl aryl ketones.
Journal ArticleDOI

Iridium Catalysts with f-Amphox Ligands: Asymmetric Hydrogenation of Simple Ketones.

TL;DR: A series of modular and rich electronic tridentate ferrocene aminophosphoxazoline ligands (f-amphox) have been successfully developed and used in iridium-catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation of simple ketones to afford corresponding enantiomerically enriched alcohols under mild conditions with superb activities and excellent enantioselectivities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Highly Efficient Tetradentate Ruthenium Catalyst for Ester Reduction: Especially for Hydrogenation of Fatty Acid Esters

TL;DR: This catalyst shows outstanding performance in the catalytic hydrogenation of a variety of ester, especially for fatty acid esters, which may be used in practical applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

C-H Oxygenation Reactions Enabled by Dual Catalysis with Electrogenerated Hypervalent Iodine Species and Ruthenium Complexes.

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of the iodoarene as the electrochemically relevant species towards C-H oxygenation with electricity as a sustainable oxidant and molecular hydrogen as the sole byproduct was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

A cheap metal for a challenging task: nickel-catalyzed highly diastereo- and enantioselective hydrogenation of tetrasubstituted fluorinated enamides

TL;DR: Nickel-catalyzed stereospecific syn-selective asymmetric hydrogenation of challenging tetrasubstituted fluorinated enamides has been achieved and this protocol provides an efficient access to chiral α-fluoro-β-amino esters.
