Phosphonate-containing polystyrene copolymer-supported Ru catalyst for asymmetric transfer hydrogenation in water

Abstract

A series of phosphonate-containing copolystyrenes with chiral ligand (1R,2R)-(+)-N1-toluenesulfonyl-1,2-diphenylethylene-1,2-diamine were prepared by radical copolymerization. The supported Ru catalysts with excellent catalytic performances (94–98% yields, 93.9–97.8% ee and 100% chemoselectivity) in aqueous asymmetric transfer hydrogenation could be easily recycled by centrifugal separation.
