Origin of the rate acceleration in enantioselective hydrogenation of α-functionalised ketones over cinchona alkaloid modified platinum

Abstract

The origin of the rate acceleration in enantioselective hydrogenation of α-functionalised ketones over cinchona alkaloid modified platinum has been studied using a combined experimental and theoretical approach, and the rate acceleration is traced to a lowering of the energy of the carbonyl π orbitals in the diastereomeric complex formed between reactant and modifier.
