Iridium Diamine Catalyst for the Asymmetric Transfer Hydrogenation of Ketones

Abstract: A simple and very efficient chiral aqua iridium(III) diamine complex leads to excellent enantioselectivities in the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of various α‐cyano and α‐nitro ketones. The catalyst provides the ortho‐substituted aromatic alcohols with especially high ee values. The diamine ligands can be used directly as chiral ligands; conversion into the corresponding sulfamide is not necessary.

“…Different approaches using either asymmetric transfer hydrogenation for the reduction of benzoylacetonitrile 5 with iridium(III) 22 and/or ruthenium(II) diamines complexes 23 or whole-cell catalysts 24,25 were studied. Recently our group displayed the reduction of the substrate 5 and its corresponding ethylated derivative 5b using Carreira's [Cp*Ir(diamine)(H 2 O)]SO 4 complexes in which the diamine ligand CAMPY and its derivatives were used as a source of chirality 26 with good stereoselectivity.…”

“…As the conversion of nitroketone 4 , which was obtained as major product from the large‐scale experiments, to nitroalcohol 2 is well established,40a,b, 47a we finally focused on the reduction of the nitrohydroxylation products 2 , 3 , and 5 to amino alcohols. Besides the above‐mentioned importance of such compounds in the field of pharmaceutical chemistry, such reactions could transform nitroalcohol 2 and its corresponding nitro nitrate 3 to the same amino alcohol, so that all nitrohydroxylation products 2–4 from the wet scrubber would be converted into only one compound.…”
