asymmetric hydrogenation
Recently Published Documents

Asymmetric catalysis is the preferred method for the synthesis of pure chiral molecules in the fine chemical industry. Cellulose has long been sought as a support in enantioselective catalysis. Dialdehyde cellulose (DAC) is produced by the selective oxidation of cellulose and is used to bind 5,5′-diamino Binap by forming a Schiff base. Here, we report the synthesis of modified cellulose-supported Rh as a novel biomass-supported catalyst and the characterization of its morphology, composition, and thermal stability. DAC-BINAP-Rh was a very effective catalyst in the asymmetric hydrogenation of enamides and could be easily recycled. This work provides a novel supported catalyst that broadens the applications of cellulose in asymmetric catalysis.

The asymmetric hydrogenation of fluorinated olefins is an effcient pathway towards the synthesis of chiral flourine-containing compounds. This paper described a metal-free asymmetric hydrogenation of 3-fluorinated chromones with the use...

Asymmetric hydrogenation (AH) and asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) are versatile synthetic methodologies widely employed in the preparation of chiral compounds. In this review, we explore the applications of AH and...
