Enantioselective hydrogenation of α-keto acetals with cinchona modified Pt catalyst
Abstract
The enantioselective hydrogenation of a variety of α-keto acetals to the corresponding α-hydroxy acetals with Pt catalysts modified with cinchonidine derivatives is described with ees up to 97% and high reaction rates, and the influence of the substrate structure, the modifier and the reaction conditions (catalyst, solvent, temperature, pressure, modifier concentration) was investigated in some detail.
