Abstract
Chiral 1,2-bis(2,5-diphenylphospholano)ethane (Ph-BPE) is a class of optimal organic bisphosphine ligands with C2-symmetry. Ph-BPE with its excellent catalytic performance in asymmetric synthesis has attracted much attention of chemists with increasing popularity and is growing into one of the most commonly used organophosphorus ligands, especially in asymmetric catalysis. Over two hundred examples have been reported since 2012. This review presents how Ph-BPE is utilized in asymmetric synthesis and how powerful it is as a chiral ligand or even a catalyst in a wide range of reactions including applications in the total synthesis of bioactive molecules.

Abstract
Nickel-catalyzed enantioselective hydrogenation of enamines leading to the efficient synthesis of 3-R-Boc-amino-4-(2,4,5-trifluorophenyl)butyric esters, the key intermediate of the blockbuster antidiabetic drug (R)-SITAGLIPTIN, is described. The sitagliptin motifs were isolated in more than 99% yield and with 75-92% ee using the earth-abundant nickel catalyst. Upon chiral resolution with (R)- and (S)-1-phenylethylamines, the partially enantioenriched (R)- and (S)-Boc-3-amino-4-(2,4,5-trifluorophenyl)butanoic acids provided >99.5% ee of the crucial sitagliptin intermediate. The asymmetric hydrogenation protocol was scaled up to 10 g with consistency in yield and ee, and has been reproduced in multiple batches.

Abstract
Asymmetric hydrogenation has remained an important and challenging research area in industry as well as academia due to its high atom economy and ability to induce chirality. Among several types of ligands, chiral bidentate phosphine ligands have played a pivotal role in developing asymmetric hydrogenation. Although C2-symmetric chiral bidentate phosphine ligands have dominated the field, it has been found that several C1-symmetric ligands are equally effective and, in many cases, have outperformed their C2-symmetric counterparts. This review evaluates the possibility of the use of C1-symmetric diphosphorus ligands in asymmetric hydrogenation to produce chiral compounds. The recent strategies and advances in the application of C1-symmetric diphosphorus ligands in the metal-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of a variety of CC bonds have been summarized. The potential of diphosphorus ligands in asymmetric hydrogenation to produce pharmaceutical intermediates, bioactive molecules, drug molecules, agrochemicals, and fragrances is discussed. Although asymmetric hydrogenation appears to be a problem that has been resolved, a deep dive into the recent literature reveals that there are several challenges that are yet to be addressed. The current asymmetric hydrogenation methods mostly employ precious metals, which are depleting at a fast pace. Therefore, scientific interventions to perform asymmetric hydrogenation using base metals or earth-abundant metals that can compete with established precious metals hold significant potential.

Nickel-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation for kinetic resolution of [2.2]paracyclophane-derived cyclic N-sulfonylimines was successfully developed. High selectivity factors were observed in most cases (s up to 89), providing the recovered materials and hydrogenation products in good yields with high levels of enantiopurity. The recovered materials and hydrogenation products are useful synthetic intermediates for the synthesis of planar chiral [2.2]paracyclophane-based compounds.

Abstract
Transfer hydrogenation (TH) has historically been dominated by Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley (MPV) reactions. However, with growing interest in amine-boranes, not least ammonia-borane (H3 N⋅BH3 ), as potential hydrogen storage materials, these compounds have also started to emerge as an alternative reagent in TH reactions. In this Review we discuss TH chemistry using H3 N⋅BH3 and their analogues (amine-boranes and metal amidoboranes) as sacrificial hydrogen donors. Three distinct pathways were considered: 1) classical TH, 2) nonclassical TH, and 3) hydrogenation. Simple experimental mechanistic probes can be employed to distinguish which pathway is operating and computational analysis can corroborate or discount mechanisms. We find that the pathway in operation can be perturbed by changing the temperature, solvent, amine-borane, or even the substrate used in the system, and subsequently assignment of the mechanism can become nontrivial.

Abstract
Herein, we report a practical method for efficient asymmetric hydrogenation of β-aryl alkylidene malonates. With a site-specifically tailored chiral spiro iridium catalyst, a series of β-aryl alkylidene malonate esters were hydrogenated to afford chiral malonate esters with good to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee) and high turnover numbers (up to 19000). The results showed that installing an ester group in α,β-unsaturated carboxylic esters significantly increased the efficiency of their asymmetric hydrogenation reactions.

A series of hydrogenation products, chiral 2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]thiophene 1,1-dioxides, were obtained in high yields (95-99%) with excellent enantioselectivities (90-99% ee). According to the results of nonlinear effect studies, deuterium-labeling experiments, and DFT calculation investigations, a reasonable catalytic mechanism for this nickel-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation was provided, which displayed that the two added hydrogen atoms of the hydrogenation products could be from H2 through the insertion of Ni-H and subsequent hydrogenolysis.

Abstract
Highly efficient Ni-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of cyclic N-sulfonyl ketimino esters was, for the first time, successfully developed, providing various chiral α-monosubstituted α-amino acid derivatives with excellent results (97-99% yields, 90 to >99% ee). Cyclic N-sulfonyl ketimines were also hydrogenated well to afford chiral amine derivatives with 98-99% yields and 97 to >99% ee. The gram-scale asymmetric hydrogenation was performed well with 85% yield and 99% ee using only 0.2 mol% catalyst.

Abstract
A chiral phenol–NHC ligand enabled the copper-catalyzed enantioselective conjugate reduction of α,β-unsaturated esters. The phenol moiety of the chiral NHC ligand played a critical role in producing the enantiomerically enriched products. The catalyst worked well for various (Z)-isomer substrates. Opposite enantiomers were obtained from (Z)- and (E)-isomers, with a higher enantiomeric excess from the (Z)-isomer.

Abstract
Semi-hydrogenation of alkynes is one of the most widely used methods for obtaining alkenes in laboratory preparation and in industry. Transition metal catalysts have been extensively studied for this transformation, but the tolerance of functional groups, such as pyridine, -OH, -NH2, -Bpin, and halides, and the toxicity of the trace amount of transition metal catalysts are still highly challenging. In this study, we report a general and robust strategy to achieve the semi-hydrogenation of alkynes using inexpensive and commercially available xanthate as the mediator. Mechanism studies support a non-radical process and H2O acts as the hydrogen donor.

Abstract
Herein, we report on the use of the iron pincer complex Iron-MACHO-BH, in the base-free transfer hydrogenation of esters with EtOH as a hydrogen source. More than 20 substrates including aromatic and aliphatic esters and lactones were reduced affording the desired primary alcohols and diols with moderate to excellent isolated yields. It is also possible to reduce polyesters to the diols with this method, enabling a novel way of plastic recycling. Reduction of the renewable substrate methyl levulinate proceeds to form 1,4-pentanediol directly. The yields are largely governed by the equilibrium between the alcohol and the ethyl ester.

A cheap metal for a challenging task: nickel-catalyzed highly diastereo- and enantioselective hydrogenation of tetrasubstituted fluorinated enamides. Chem Sci 2018; 10:252-256. [PMID: 30746080 PMCID: PMC6335620 DOI: 10.1039/c8sc04002h] [Citation(s) in RCA: 47] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2018] [Accepted: 10/03/2018] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Nickel-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of challenging tetrasubstituted fluorinated enamides has been achieved, affording chiral α-fluoro-β-amino esters in high yields with excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivities (up to 98% yield, >99 : 1 dr, up to >99% ee). Deuterium-labeling experiments and control experiments were conducted to probe the mechanism, and the results indicated that the acidity of the solvent plays a critical role in the control of diastereoselectivity by trapping the adduct of nickel hydride to C[double bond, length as m-dash]C bonds via protonolysis, giving the hydrogenation product with stereospecific syn-selectivity. This protocol provides efficient access to chiral α-fluoro-β-amino esters which have important potential applications in organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry.

Abstract
A novel metal-free reduction system, in which H2Se (or HSe-) produced in situ from Se/DMF/H2O acts as the active reducing species, has been developed. By using water as an inexpensive, safe, and environmentally friendly surrogate as the hydrogen donor, this new reduction system incorporating Se/DMF/H2O displayed high selectivity and good activity in the reduction of α,β-unsaturated ketones and alkynes. Therefore, this reduction system has great potential to be a general and practical reduction methodology in organic transformation.

Abstract
Amines bearing γ-stereocenters are highly important structural motifs in many biologically active compounds. However, reported enantioselective syntheses of these molecules are indirect and often require multiple steps. Herein, we report a general asymmetric route for the one-pot synthesis of chiral γ-branched amines through the highly enantioselective isomerization of allylamines, followed by enamine exchange and subsequent chemoselective reduction. This protocol is suitable for establishing various tertiary stereocenters, including those containing dialkyl, diaryl, cyclic, trifluoromethyl, difluoromethyl, and silyl substituents, which allows for a rapid and modular synthesis of many chiral γ-branched amines. To demonstrate the synthetic utility, Terikalant and Tolterodine are synthesized using this method with high levels of enantioselectivity. Biologically active compounds often contain a chiral centre in proximity of amine groups. Here, the authors developed a strategy involving asymmetric isomerization of allylic amines, enamine exchange and chemoselective reduction for the one-pot highly enantioselective synthesis of gamma-branched amines.

Abstract
An efficient approach for synthesizing chiral β-amino nitroalkanes has been developed via the Ni-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of challenging β-amino nitroolefins under mild conditions, affording the desired products in excellent yields and with high enantioselectivities. This protocol had good compatibility with the wide substrate scope and a range of functional groups. The synthesis of chiral β-amino nitroalkanes on a gram scale has also been achieved. In addition, the reaction mechanism was elucidated using a combined experimental and computational study, and it involved acetate-assisted heterolytic H2 cleavage followed by 1,4-hydride addition and protonation to achieve the nitroalkanes.
