Abstract
Developing a general, highly efficient, and enantioselective catalytic method for the synthesis of chiral alcohols is still a formidable challenge. We report in this article the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of N-methyliminodiacetyl (MIDA) acylboronates as a general substrate-independent entry to enantioenriched secondary alcohols. ATH of acyl-MIDA-boronates with (het)aryl, alkyl, alkynyl, alkenyl, and carbonyl substituents delivers a variety of enantioenriched α-boryl alcohols. The latter are used in a range of stereospecific transformations based on the boron moiety, enabling the synthesis of carbinols with two closely related α-substituents, which cannot be obtained with high enantioselectivities using direct asymmetric hydrogenation methods, such as the (R)-cloperastine intermediate. Computational studies illustrate that the BMIDA group is a privileged enantioselectivity-directing group in Noyori-Ikariya ATH compared to the conventionally used aryl and alkynyl groups due to the favorable CH-O attractive electrostatic interaction between the η6-arene-CH of the catalyst and the σ-bonded oxygen atoms in BMIDA. The work expands the domain of conventional ATH and shows its huge potential in addressing challenges in symmetric synthesis.

Abstract
Developing a general method that leads to the formation of different classes of chiral bioactive compounds and their stereoisomers is an attractive but challenging research topic in organic synthesis. Furthermore, despite the great value of asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) in both organic synthesis and the pharmaceutical industry, the monohydrogenation of unsymmetrical 1,2-diketones remains underdeveloped. Here, we report the aryloxy group-assisted highly regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselective ATH of racemic 1,2-diketones. The work produces a myriad of enantioenriched dihydroxy ketones, and further transformations furnish all eight stereoisomers of diaryl triols, polyphenol, emblirol, and glycerol-type natural products. Mechanistic studies and calculations reveal two working modes of the aryloxy group in switching the regioselectivity from a more reactive carbonyl to a less reactive one, and the potential of ATH on 1,2-diketones in solving challenging synthetic issues has been clearly demonstrated.

Abstract
Here we present a novel strategy for the synthesis of enantiomerically enriched tetrahydronaphthalen-1-ols. The reaction proceeds via an alkylation (via hydrogen borrowing) and ammonium formate-mediated asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (via dynamic kinetic resolution), giving alkylated tetralols in high yields and good enantio- and diastereoselectivity across a diverse range of both alcohol and tetralone substrates. Additionally, these products were successfully derivatized to several complex molecules, demonstrating the utility of the tetrahydronaphthalen-1-ol.

Abstract
Ru-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of α-substituted α,β-unsaturated ketones has been developed for the enantioselective synthesis of chiral α-substituted secondary alcohols with high diastereo- and enantioselectivities (up to >99 : 1 dr, 98% ee). Mechanistic experiments suggest that the reaction proceeds via a Ru-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of the CO bond in concert with a base-promoted allylic alcohol isomerization, and the final stereoselectivities were controlled by a DKR process during the asymmetric hydrogenation of the ketone intermediate.

Abstract
The asymmetric hydrogenation (AH) of N-unprotected indoles is a straightforward, yet challenging method to access biologically interesting NH chiral indolines. This method has for years been limited to 2/3-monosubstituted or 2,3-disubstituted indoles, which produce chiral indolines bearing endocyclic chiral centers. Herein, we have reported an innovative Pd-catalyzed AH of racemic α-alkyl or aryl-substituted indole-2-acetates using an acid-assisted dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) process, affording a range of structurally fascinating chiral indolines that contain exocyclic stereocenters with excellent yields, diastereoselectivities, and enantioselectivities. Mechanistic studies support that the DKR process relies on a rapid interconversion of each enantiomer of racemic substrates, leveraged by an acid-promoted isomerization between the aromatic indole and nonaromatic exocyclic enamine intermediate. The reaction can be performed on a gram scale, and the products can be derivatized into non-natural β-amino acids via facile debenzylation and amino alcohol upon reduction.

Abstract
Four-membered carbocycles are fundamental substructures in bioactive molecules and approved drugs and serve as irreplaceable building blocks in organic synthesis. However, developing efficient protocols furnishing diversified four-membered ring compounds in a highly regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselective fashion remains challenging but very desirable. Here, we report the unprecedented asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of cyclobutenediones. The reaction can selectively afford three types of four-membered products in high yields with high stereoselectivities, and the highly functionalized products enable a series of further transformations to form more diversified four-membered compounds. Asymmetric synthesis of di-, tri-, and tetrasubstituted bioactive molecules has also been achieved. Systematic mechanistic studies and theoretical calculations have revealed the origin of the regioselectivity, the key hydrogenation transition state models, and the sequence of the double and triple hydrogenation processes. The work provides a new choice for the catalytic asymmetric synthesis of cyclobutanes and related structures and demonstrates the robustness of asymmetric transfer hydrogenation in the accurate selectivity control of highly functionalized substrates.

Abstract
Developing innovative dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) modes and achieving the highly regio- and enantioselective semihydrogenation of unsymmetrical α-diketones are two formidable challenges in the field of contemporary asymmetric (transfer) hydrogenation. In this work, we report the highly regio- and stereoselective asymmetric semi-transfer hydrogenation of unsymmetrical α-diketones through a unique DKR mode, which features the reduction of the carbonyl group distal from the labile stereocenter, while the proximal carbonyl remains untouched. Moreover, the protocol affords a variety of enantioenriched acyclic ketones with α-hydroxy-α'-C(sp2)-functional groups, which represent a new product class that has not been furnished in known arts. The utilities of the products have been demonstrated in a series of further transformations including the rapid synthesis of drug molecules. Density functional theory calculations and plenty of control experiments have also been conducted to gain more mechanistic insights into the highly selective semihydrogenation.

Abstract
Chiral succinimide moieties are ubiquitous in biologically active natural products and pharmaceuticals. Until today, despite the great interest, little success has been made for stereodivergent synthesis of chiral succinimides. Here, we report a general and efficient method for accessing 3,4-disubstituted succinimides through a dynamic kinetic resolution strategy based on asymmetric transfer hydrogenation. The Rh catalyst system exhibit high activities, enantioselectivities, and diastereoselectivities (up to 2000 TON, up to >99% ee, and up to >99:1 dr). Products with syn- and anti-configuration are obtained separately by control of the reaction conditions. For the N-unprotected substrates, both the enol and the imide group can be reduced by control of reaction time and catalyst loading. In addition, the detailed reaction pathway and origin of stereoselectivity are elucidated by control experiments and theoretical calculations. This study offers a straightforward and stereodivergent approach to the valuable enantioenriched succinimides (all 4 stereoisomers) from cheap chemical feedstocks in a single reaction step.

Abstract
The oxo-tethered-Ru(II) precatalyst promoted the one-pot C═C/C═O reduction of chalcones using sodium formate as the hydrogen source in water through asymmetric transfer hydrogenation. Twenty-seven 1,3-diarylpropan-1-ols were obtained in good to excellent yields (up to 96%) and enantiomeric purities (up to 98:2). Our data suggested that the enones are first reduced to the corresponding dihydrochalcones (1,4-selectivity) and then into 1,3-diarylpropan-1-ols (C═O reduction). The stereoelectronic effects of electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups at the ortho, meta and para positions of both aromatic rings were evaluated. The 2-OH group at the B ring was well tolerated, allowing a straightforward enantioselective synthesis of two flavans through the Mitsunobu cyclization, the antiviral (S)-BW683C and the natural flavan (S)-tephrowatsin E.

Abstract
A ruthenium-catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of 2,3-disubstituted flavanones was developed for the construction of three contiguous stereocenters under basic conditions through a combination of dynamic kinetic resolution and retro-oxa-Michael addition, giving chiral flavanols with excellent enantioselectivities and diastereoselectivities. The reaction proceeded via a base-catalyzed retro-oxa-Michael addition to racemize two stereogenic centers simultaneously in concert with a highly enantioselective ketone transfer hydrogenation step. The asymmetric transfer hydrogenation could be achieved at gram scale without loss of the activity and enantioselectivity.

Abstract
![]()
Asymmetric hydrogenation
of prochiral substrates such as ketones
and olefins constitutes an important instrument for the construction
of stereogenic centers, and a multitude of catalytic systems have
been developed for this purpose. However, due to the different nature
of the π-system, the hydrogenation of olefins and ketones is
normally catalyzed by different metal complexes. Herein, a study on
the effect of additives on the Ir-N,P-catalyzed hydrogenation of enones
is described. The combination of benzamide and the development of
a reactive catalyst unlocked a novel reactivity mode of Crabtree-type
complexes toward C=O bond hydrogenation. The role of benzamide
is suggested to extend the lifetime of the dihydridic iridium intermediate,
which is prone to undergo irreversible trimerization, deactivating
the catalyst. This unique reactivity is then coupled with C=C
bond hydrogenation for the facile installation of two contiguous stereogenic
centers in high yield and stereoselectivity (up to 99% ee, 99/1 d.r.) resulting in a highly stereoselective reduction of enones.

Abstract
Prochiral racemic allylic alcohols are converted to enantioenriched chiral alcohols bearing adjacent stereocenters catalyzed by a diamine diphosphine Ru complex in the presence of tBuOK. The protocol features a broad substrate scope (56 examples) and high diastereo- and enantioselectivities (up to >99:1 dr, >99% ee) and could be applied to the synthesis of enantioenriched chromane and indane compounds. Mechanistic studies suggest that the reaction proceeds via tBuOK-promoted allylic alcohol isomerization followed by Ru-catalyzed hydrogenative dynamic kinetic resolution.

C and CO bonds of the enones were hydrogenated sequentially, and the final stereoselectivities were determined by the dynamic kinetic resolution of ketones. Moreover, DFT calculations revealed that an outer sphere pathway was involved in both reduction of CC and CO bonds of enones. The synthetic utility of this method was demonstrated by a gram-scale reaction with very low catalyst loading (S/C = 20 000) and a concise synthetic route to key chiral intermediates of the antiasthmatic drug CP-199,330. A general and efficient method for asymmetric sequential hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated ketones has been developed. A dynamic kinetic resolution and an outer sphere pathway were involved in this transformation.![]()

Abstract
A bifunctional tethered iridium catalyst containing a 1,2-diphenylethylenediamine framework was synthesised for the first time. The ethereal tether chain was easily constructed via the intramolecular oxydefluorination of a perfluorophenylsulfonyl substituent by using a modified 1,2,3,4,5-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl ligand with a hydroxyalkyl chain. The conformationally constrained structure could hamper deactivation pathways in the catalytic hydrogen generation from formic acid, leading to advanced durability and complete conversion.
