Abstract

The first family of sugar derivative dithioethers 1,2-O-isopropylidene-3,5-bis(methylsulfanyl)-, (+)-RiSSMe2, 1,2-O-isopropylidene-3,5-bis(isopropylsulfanyl)-, (+)-RiSSPri2, and 1,2-O-isopropylidene-3,5-bis(phenylsulfanyl)-α-D-(+)-ribofuranose, (+)-RiSSPh2, was prepared from 1,2-O-isopropylidene-3,5-di-O-trifluoromethanesulfonyl-D-xylofuranose. Reaction of these chiral C1 symmetrical dithioether ligands with [Ir(cod)2]BF4 (cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene) yielded the iridium complexes [Ir(cod){(+)-RiSSR2}]BF4 1–3. Their reaction with H2 at 0 °C gave the cis-dihydridoiridium(III) complexes [IrH2(cod){(+)-RiSSR2}]BF4 4–6. Complexes 1–3 were tested in the asymmetric hydrogenation of acrylic acid derivatives at 1 bar of H2 and room temperature, providing enantioselectivities of up to 62%.
