Abstract
The transition-metal-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of olefins is one of the key transformations with great utility in various industrial applications. The field has been dominated by the use of noble metal catalysts, such as iridium and rhodium. The reactions with the earth-abundant cobalt metal have increased only in recent years. In this work, we analyze the large amount of literature data available on iridium- and rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation. The limited data on reactions using Co catalysts are then examined in the context of Ir and Rh to obtain a better understanding of the reactivity pattern. A detailed data-driven study of the types of olefins, ligands, and reaction conditions such as solvent, temperature, and pressure is carried out. Our analysis provides an understanding of the literature trends and demonstrates that only a few olefin-ligand combinations or reaction conditions are frequently used. The knowledge of this bias in the literature data toward a certain group of substrates or reaction conditions can be useful for practitioners to design new reaction data sets that are suitable to obtain meaningful predictions from machine-learning models.

Abstract
This study introduces a novel approach for the separation of indacrinone (IC) enantiomers, crucial in treating edema, hypertension, and hyperuricemia. A cationic biopolymer from furan-2-ylmethylhydrazine-cellulose (FUH-CE), derived from cyanoethyl cellulose (CEC), serving as a substrate in molecular imprinting. A key innovation is the use of the Diels-Alder reaction for efficient cross-linking with bis(maleimido)ethane (BME). This chemical strategy resulted in molecularly imprinted microparticles with high selectivity for the S-IC enantiomer, which can be eluted by adjusting the solution's pH. Extensive characterization confirmed the chemical modifications and selective binding efficacy of these biopolymers. Utilizing separation columns, our method achieved an impressive chiral resolution of (±)-IC, with an enantiomeric excess (ee) of 95 % for R-IC during the loading phase and 97 % for S-IC during elution. Under optimized conditions, the biopolymer demonstrated a maximum binding capacity of 131 mg/g at pH 6. This advanced approach represents a significant advancement in chiral separation technology, offering a robust and efficient technique for the selective isolation of enantiomers. This method not only enhances potential targeted therapeutic applications but also provides a scalable solution for industrial chiral separations.

Abstract
Chiral phosphorus ligands play a crucial role in asymmetric catalysis for the efficient synthesis of useful optically active compounds. They are largely categorized into two classes: backbone chirality ligands and P-stereogenic phosphorus ligands. Most of the reported ligands belong to the former class. Privileged ones such as BINAP and DuPhos are frequently employed in a wide range of catalytic asymmetric transformations. In contrast, the latter class of P-stereogenic phosphorus ligands has remained a small family for many years mainly because of their synthetic difficulty. The late 1990s saw the emergence of novel P-stereogenic phosphorus ligands with their superior enantioinduction ability in Rh-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation reactions. Since then, numerous P-stereogenic phosphorus ligands have been synthesized and used in catalytic asymmetric reactions. This Review summarizes P-stereogenic phosphorus ligands reported thus far, including their stereochemical and electronic properties that afford high to excellent enantioselectivities. Examples of reactions that use this class of ligands are described together with their applications in the construction of key intermediates for the synthesis of optically active natural products and therapeutic agents. The literature covered dates back to 1968 up until December 2023, centering on studies published in the late 1990s and later years.

Abstract
The current work describes the efficient creation and employment of a new S-citalopram selective polymeric sorbent, made from poly(divinylbenzene-maleic anhydride-styrene). The process began by using suspension polymerization technique in the synthesis of poly(styrene-maleic anhydride-divinylbenzene) microparticles. These were then modified with ethylenediamine, developing an amido-succinic acid-based polymer derivative. The S-citalopram, a cationic molecule, was loaded onto these developed anionic polymer particles. Subsequently, the particles were post-crosslinked using glyoxal, which reacts with the amino group residues of ethylenediamine. S-citalopram was extracted from this matrix using an acidic solution, which also left behind stereo-selective cavities in the S-citalopram imprinted polymer, allowing for the selective re-adsorption of S-citalopram. The attributes of the polymer were examined through methods such as 13C NMR, FTIR, thermogravemetric and elemental analyses. SEM was used to observe the shapes and structures of the particles. The imprinted polymers demonstrated a significant ability to adsorb S-citalopram, achieving a capacity of 878 mmol/g at a preferred pH level of 8. It proved efficient in separating enantiomers of (±)-citalopram via column methods, achieving an enantiomeric purity of 97 % for R-citalopram upon introduction and 92 % for S-citalopram upon release.

Abstract
The transition-metal catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of unfunctionalized alkenes is challenging. Herein, we report an efficient iridium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of unfunctionalized cycloalkenes, delivering chiral 2-aryl tetralins in excellent yields and with moderate to excellent enantioselectivities. The reaction can be performed on a gram-scale with a low catalyst loading (S/C = 1000), and the reduced product was obtained without erosion of the enantioselectivity. Deuterium experiments indicated that the C═C bond in the substrate is hydrogenated directly without isomerization.

Abstract
Research on the chemoselective metal-catalyzed hydrogenation of conjugated π-systems has mostly been focussed on enones. Herein, we communicate the understudied asymmetric hydrogenation of enimines catalyzed by N,P-iridium complexes and chemoselective toward the alkene. A number of enoxime ethers underwent hydrogenation smoothly to yield the desired products in high yield and stereopurity (up to 99 % yield, up to 99 % ee). No hydrogenation of the C=N π-bond was observed under the applied reaction conditions (20 bar H2, rt, DCM). It was demonstrated that the chiral oxime ether could be hydrolyzed into the ketone with complete preservation of the installed stereogenity at the α-carbon. At last, a binding mode of the substrate to the active iridium catalyst and the consequence for the stereoselective outcome was proposed.

Abstract
The reaction of [Ru(dmso)4Cl2] with a potassium salt of four xanthate (RO-C(S)S-; R = Me, Et, iPr and tBu) ligands (depicted as Ln; n = 1-4) in hot methanol afforded a group of mixed-ligand complexes of type [Ru(Ln)2(dmso)2]. The crystal structures of all the four complexes have been determined, which show that the xanthate ligands are bound to the metal center forming four-membered chelates and dmso is coordinated through sulfur and they are mutually cis. The relative thermodynamic stability of this cis and the other possible trans-isomers of these complexes has been assessed with the help of DFT calculations, which have revealed that the cis-isomer is the more stable isomer. The coordinated dmso in the [Ru(Ln)2(dmso)2] complexes could be easily displaced by chelating bidentate ligands (depicted as L') to furnish complexes of type [Ru(Ln)2(L')], as demonstrated through isolation of two such complexes, viz. [Ru(L3)2(bpy)] and [Ru(L2)2(phen)] (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine and phen = 1,10-phenanthroline). The crystal structure of [Ru(L3)2(bpy)] has been determined and the structure of [Ru(L2)2(phen)] has been optimized by the DFT method. The electronic spectra of the four [Ru(Ln)2(dmso)2] complexes and the two derivatives ([Ru(Ln)2(L')]; n = 3, L' = bpy; n = 2, L' = phen), recorded in dichloromethane solutions, show intense absorptions spanning the visible and ultraviolet regions, which have been analyzed by the TDDFT method. The [Ru(Ln)2(dmso)2] complexes are found to serve as efficient catalyst precursors for the acceptorless dehydrogenation of 2-propanol followed by crossed-aldol condensation with substituted benzaldehydes (and related aldehydes), using tert-butoxide as the co-catalyst, producing dibenzylideneacetone derivatives in good yields.

Abstract
Phosphine-ligated transition metal complexes play a pivotal role in modern catalysis, but our understanding of the impact of ligand counts on the catalysis performance of the metal center is limited. Here we report the synthesis of a low-coordinate mono(phosphine)-Rh catalyst on a metal-organic layer (MOL), P-MOL • Rh, and its applications in the hydrogenation of mono-, di-, and tri-substituted alkenes as well as aryl nitriles with turnover numbers (TONs) of up to 390000. Mechanistic investigations and density functional theory calculations revealed the lowering of reaction energy barriers by the low steric hindrance of site-isolated mono(phosphine)-Rh sites on the MOL to provide superior catalytic activity over homogeneous Rh catalysts. The MOL also prevents catalyst deactivation to enable recycle and reuse of P-MOL • Rh in catalytic hydrogenation reactions.

Abstract
Although progress has been made in enantioselective hydroboration of di- and trisubstituted alkenes over the past decades, enantioselective hydroboration of tetrasubstituted alkenes with high diastereo- and enantioselectivities continues as an unmet challenge since the 1950s due to its extremely low reactivity and the difficulties to simultaneously control the regio- and stereoselectivity of a tetrasubstituted alkene. Here, we report highly regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselective catalytic hydroboration of diverse acyclic tetrasubstituted alkenes. The delicate interplay of an electron-rich rhodium complex and coordination-assistance forms a highly adaptive catalyst that effectively overcomes the low reactivity and controls the stereoselectivity. The generality of the catalyst system is exemplified by its efficacy across various tetrasubstituted alkenes with diverse steric and electronic properties.

Abstract
Stereoselective hydrogenation of tetrasubstituted olefins is an attractive method to access compounds with two contiguous stereocenters. However, homogeneous catalysts for enantio- and diastereoselective hydrogenation exhibit low reactivity toward tetrasubstituted olefins due to steric crowding between the ligand scaffold and the substrate. Monometallic heterogeneous catalysts, on the other hand, provide accessible surface active sites for hindered olefins but exhibit unpredictable and inconsistent stereoinduction. In this work, we develop a Pt-Ni bimetallic alloy catalyst that can diastereoselectively hydrogenate unactivated, sterically-bulky tetrasubstituted olefins, utilizing the more oxophilic Ni atoms to adsorb a hydroxyl directing group and direct facially-selective hydrogen addition to the olefin via the Pt atoms. Structure-activity studies on several Pt-Ni compositions underscore the importance of exposing a uniform PtNi alloy surface to achieve high diastereoselectivity and minimize side reactions. The optimized Pt-Ni/SiO2 catalyst exhibits good functional group tolerance and broad scope for tetrasubstituted olefins in a cyclopentene scaffold, generating cyclopentanol products with three contiguous stereocenters. The synthetic utility of the method is demonstrated in a four-step synthesis of (1R,2S)-(+)-cis-methyldihydrojasmonate with high yield and enantiopurity.

Abstract
Asymmetric hydrogenation finds widespread application in academia and industry. And indeed, a number of processes have been implemented for the production of pharma and agro intermediates as well as flavors & fragrances. Although these processes are all based on the use of late transition metals as catalysts, there is an increasing interest in the use of base metal catalysis in view of their lower cost and the expected different substrate scope. Catalysts based on cobalt have already shown their potential in enantioselective hydrogenation chemistry. This review outlines the impressive progress made in recent years on cobalt-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of different unsaturated substrates. We also illustrate the ligand dependent substrate specificity as well as the mechanistic variability in detail. This may well guide further catalyst development in this research area.

There are only a few reports on the AH of tetrasubstituted olefins with conjugated functional groups, while this process can create useful intermediates for the subsequent elaboration of relevant end products. Most of the tetrasubstituted olefins successfully submitted to AH belong to a small number of functional classes; remarkably, the AH of tetrasubstituted acyclic enones still represents an unsolved challenge. Herein, we disclose a class of air-stable Ir-P,N catalysts, prepared in three steps from commercially available amino alcohols, that can hydrogenate, in minutes, a wide range of electronically and sterically diverse acyclic tetrasubstituted enones (including exocyclic ones) with high yields and high enantioselectivities. The factors responsible for the excellent selectivities were elucidated by combining deuterogenation experiments and theoretical calculations. The calculations indicated that the reduction follows an IrI /IrIII mechanism, in which enantioselectivity is controlled in the first migratory insertion of the hydride to the most electrophilic olefinic Cβ and the formation of the hydrogenated product via reductive elimination takes place prior to the coordination of dihydrogen and the subsequent oxidative addition. The potential of the new catalytic systems is demonstrated by the derivatization of hydrogenation products.

Abstract
Despite half a century's advance in the field of transition-metal-catalyzed asymmetric alkene hydrogenation, the enantioselective hydrogenation of purely alkyl-substituted 1,1-dialkylethenes has remained an unmet challenge. Herein, we describe a chiral PCNOx-pincer iridium complex for asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of this alkene class with ethanol, furnishing all-alkyl-substituted tertiary stereocenters. High levels of enantioselectivity can be achieved in the reactions of substrates with secondary/primary and primary/primary alkyl combinations. The catalyst is further applied to the redox isomerization of disubstituted alkenols, producing a tertiary stereocenter remote to the resulting carbonyl group. Mechanistic studies reveal a dihydride species, (PCNOx)Ir(H)2, as the catalytically active intermediate, which can decay to a dimeric species (κ3-PCNOx)IrH(μ-H)2IrH(κ2-PCNOx) via a ligand-remetalation pathway. The catalyst deactivation under the hydrogenation conditions with H2 is much faster than that under the transfer hydrogenation conditions with EtOH, which explains why the (PCNOx)Ir catalyst is effective for the transfer hydrogenation but ineffective for the hydrogenation. The suppression of di-to-trisubstituted alkene isomerization by regioselective 1,2-insertion is partly responsible for the success of this system, underscoring the critical role played by the pincer ligand in enantioselective transfer hydrogenation of 1,1-dialkylethenes. Moreover, computational studies elucidate the significant influence of the London dispersion interaction between the ligand and the substrate on enantioselectivity control, as illustrated by the complete reversal of stereochemistry through cyclohexyl-to-cyclopropyl group substitution in the alkene substrates.

Abstract
Phosphinooxazoline (PHOX) ligands have been used to control the regio- and enantioselectivity in a wide variety of metal-catalyzed reactions. Despite their widespread use, PHOX ligands have never been studied in metal-aryne complexes. Herein we report the first example of a PHOX-Ni aryne complex. As demonstrated in other systems, the differentiated P versus N donors and different steric environments of the unsymmetric ligand are able to induce regiocontrol. A 81:19 mixture of o-methoxy substituted aryne complexes is observed. Single-crystal X-ray crystallographic analysis, UV/vis spectroscopy, and cyclic voltammetry are used to gain further insight into the molecular and electronic structure of these complexes. Lastly, a methylation/deuteration sequence shows retention of the PHOX ligand-induced regiocontrol in the difunctionalized products and that the regiospecificity of these difunctionalizations is due to the trans influence of the P donor.

Abstract
An electrochemical defluorinative cross-coupling of gem-difluoroalkenes with carbonyl compounds was described, by which highly stereoselective monofluoroalkene allyl alcohols were synthesized. The reaction tolerates a broad range of functional groups and has successfully been applied to synthesize complex molecules. Mechanistic studies indicate that the reaction starts from electron reduction of gem-difluoroalkenes to generate radical negative ions, which undergo β-fluoride elimination and subsequent reduction to form anions. These anions are subsequently trapped by carbonyl compounds to furnish target products.

Abstract
The development of metal-free and recyclable catalysts for significant yet challenging transformations of naturally abundant feedstocks has long been sought after. In this work, we contribute a general strategy of combining the rationally designed crystalline covalent organic framework (COF) with a newly developed chiral frustrated Lewis pair (CFLP) to afford chiral frustrated Lewis pair framework (CFLPF), which can efficiently promote the asymmetric olefin hydrogenation in a heterogeneous manner, outperforming the homogeneous CFLP counterpart. Notably, the metal-free CFLPF exhibits superior activity/enantioselectivity in addition to excellent stability/recyclability. A series of in situ spectroscopic studies, kinetic isotope effect measurements, and density-functional theory computational calculations were also performed to gain an insightful understanding of the superior asymmetric hydrogenation catalysis performances of CFLPF. Our work not only increases the versatility of catalysts for asymmetric catalysis but also broadens the reactivity of porous organic materials with the addition of frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) chemistry, thereby suggesting a new approach for practical and substantial transformations through the advancement of novel catalysts from both concept and design perspectives.

Abstract
Despite the proven potential of metal complexes as therapeutics, the lack of computational tools available for the high-throughput screening of their interactions with proteins is a limiting factor toward clinical developments. To address this challenge, we introduce MetalDock, an easy-to-use, open access docking software for docking metal complexes to proteins. Our tool integrates the AutoDock docking engine with three well-known quantum software packages to automate the docking of metal-organic complexes to proteins. We used a Monte Carlo sampling scheme to obtain the missing Lennard-Jones parameters for 12 metal atom types and demonstrated that these parameters generalize exceptionally well. Our results show that the poses obtained by MetalDock are highly accurate, as they predict the binding geometries experimentally determined by crystal structures with high spatial reproducibility. Three different case studies are presented that demonstrate the versatility of MetalDock for the docking of diverse metal-organic compounds to different biomacromolecules, including nucleic acids.

The Effect of Conformational Freedom vs Restriction on the Rate in Asymmetric Hydrogenation: Iridium-Catalyzed Regio- and Enantioselective Monohydrogenation of Dienones. Chemistry 2023:e202303406.

Abstract
Transition metal-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation constitutes an efficient strategy for the preparation of chiral molecules. When dienes are subjected to hydrogenation, control over regioselectivity still presents a large challenge and the fully saturated alkane is often yielded. A few successful monohydrogenations of dienes have been reported, but hitherto these are only efficient for dienes comprised of two distinctly different olefins. Herein, the reactivity of a conjugated carbonyl compound as a function of their conformational freedom is studied, based on a combined experimental and theoretical approach. It was found that alkenes in the (s)-cis conformation experience a large rate acceleration while (s)-trans restrained alkenes undergo hydrogenation slowly. Ultimately, this reactivity aspect was exploited in a novel method for the monohydrogenation of dienes based on conformational restriction ((s)-cis vs (s)-trans). This mode of discrimination conceptually differs from existing monohydrogenations and dienones constructed of two olefins similar in nature could efficiently be hydrogenated to the chiral alkene (up to 99 % ee). The extent of regioselection is even powerful enough to overcome the conventional reactivity order of substituted olefins (di>tri>tetra). This high yielding and atom-economical protocol provides an interesting opportunity to instal a stereogenic center on a carbocycle, while leaving a synthetically useful alkene untouched.

Abstract
A Rh-catalyzed highly chemo- and enantioselective hydrogenation of 2-CF3-chromen/thiochromen-4-ones was successfully established achieving excellent selectivity and high turnover numbers. Under mild conditions, a series of 2-CF3-chromen-4-ones were hydrogenated to provide the corresponding chiral 2-CF3-chroman-4-ones with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99.9% ee) and achieve high turnover numbers (TON of up to 11,800). Moreover, the obtained hydrogenation products were also successfully transformed into other derivatives including the important intermediate of plasmepsin inhibitors with maintained enantiopurity.

Abstract
Introduction of Crabtree's iridium-based hydrogenation catalyst in 1977 marked a paradigm shift both with respect to the role of iridium in homogeneous catalysis as well as catalytic hydrogenation of olefins. In 1998, Pfaltz introduced an improved catalyst, by use of BARF- as anion, and established the first chiral variant of the Crabtree catalyst. This led to numerous practical highly enantioselective syntheses. Elucidation of mechanistic details posed great problems because of instability of the crucial intermediates. A remarkable breakthrough was achieved by Brandt, Andersson et al. in 2003, based on dft calculations. These authors replaced a previously assumed IrI /IrIII catalytic cycle by a novel IrIII /IrV cycle. The proposal was experimentally verified by Pfaltz in 2014 and corroborated by advanced quantum chemical calculations. This essay is an attempt to describe a fascinating interplay of experiments and quantum chemical calculations for an important synthetic method.

Abstract
The remote groups in N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands have a significant influence on metal-catalyzed reactions. We examine how remote bulkiness, electronic groups, and expanded-ring NHCs (ER-NHCs) influence alkene reactivity and regioselectivity toward hydrocupration using density functional theory calculations. The impact of remote steric bulkiness on the Cu-H insertion rate is analyzed, revealing a strong correlation between the steric substituent constant and rate ratio, where a bulky group increases the rate due to reduced steric effects in the transition state (TS). The steric properties of the examined catalysts (with a remote group R2 = CPh3, CHPh2, CH2Ph, CH3, and H) and their corresponding TSs are found to be modulated greatly by the remote steric substitution group and the ring size of the NHC ligand. Enhanced bulkiness enhances the nucleophilic Cu-H moiety. The remote electronic groups have a smaller impact on insertion barrier compared to that of steric hindrance. Furthermore, ER-NHC exploration indicates that NHCs with over five-membered rings have a significantly negative influence on the reaction rate. Finally, with a highly bulky group (R2 = CPh3), anti-Markovnikov insertion preference is attributed to high interaction energy and improved steric properties. Overall, our findings here provide valuable insights for the development of a more effective catalyst in metal-catalyzed reactions.

Abstract
ConspectusCatalytic intermolecular hydroamination of alkenes is an atom- and step-economical method for the synthesis of amines, which have important applications as pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, catalysts, and materials. However, hydroaminations of alkenes in high yield with high selectivity are challenging to achieve because these reactions often lack a thermodynamic driving force and often are accompanied by side reactions, such as alkene isomerization, telomerization, and oxidative amination. Consequently, early examples of hydroamination were generally limited to the additions of N-H bonds to conjugated alkenes or strained alkenes, and the catalytic hydroamination of unactivated alkenes with late transition metals has only been disclosed recently. Many classes of catalysts, including early transition metals, late transition metals, rare-earth metals, acids, and photocatalysts, have been reported for catalytic hydroamination. Among them, late transition-metal complexes possess several advantages, including their relative ease of handling and their high compatibility of substrates containing polar or sensitive functional groups.This Account describes the progression in our laboratory of hydroaminations catalyzed by late transition-metal complexes from the initial additions of N-H bonds to activated alkenes to the more recent additions to unactivated alkenes. Our developments include the Markovnikov and anti-Markovnikov hydroamination of vinylarenes with palladium, rhodium, and ruthenium, the hydroamination of dienes and trienes with nickel and palladium, the hydroanimation of bicyclic strained alkenes with neutral iridium, and the hydroamination of unactivated terminal and internal alkenes with cationic iridium and ruthenium. Enantioselective hydroaminations of these classes of alkenes to form enantioenriched, chiral amines also have been developed.Mechanistic studies have elucidated the elementary steps and the turnover-limiting steps of these catalytic reactions. The hydroamination of conjugated alkenes catalyzed by palladium, rhodium, nickel, and ruthenium occurs by turnover-limiting nucleophilic attack of the amine on a coordinated benzyl, allyl, alkene, or arene ligand. On the other hand, the hydroamination of unconjugated alkenes catalyzed by ruthenium and iridium occurs by turnover-limiting migratory insertion of the alkene into a metal-nitrogen bond. In addition, pathways for the formation of side products, including isomeric alkenes and enamines, have been identified during our studies. During studies on enantioselective hydroamination, the reversibility of the hydroamination has been shown to erode the enantiopurity of the products. Based on our mechanistic understandings, new generations of catalysts that promote catalytic hydroaminations with higher rates, chemoselectivity, and enantioselectivity have been developed. We hope that our discoveries and mechanistic insights will facilitate the further development of catalysts that promote selective, practical, and efficient hydroamination of alkenes.

Abstract
We present a green and economical approach for the photooxidation of diverse olefins through the use of ammonium persulfate and blue light irradiation, resulting in the formation of vicinal diols from styrenes and aliphatic alkenes, and vinyl esters and diacids from α,β-unsaturated ketones. The involvement of sulfate radicals in the reaction medium was established as the primary species responsible for the selective generation of the products. A significant advantage of the method lies in its broad substrate scope and economic feasibility, making it a promising alternative to conventional transition metal photocatalysis.

Abstract
Homogenous transition-metal catalysts bearing a chiral ligand are widely used for asymmetric hydrogenation of unsaturated compounds such as olefins and ketones, providing efficient concise access to products with chiral carbon centers. However, distinguishing the re and si prochiral faces of a double bond bearing two substituents that are sterically and electronically similar is challenging for these catalysts. Herein, we report a relay strategy for constructing compounds with a chiral gem-diaryl carbon center by means of a combination of selective arene exchange between 1,1-diarylethylenes or benzophenones with (naphthalene)Cr(CO)3 and subsequent asymmetric hydrogenation. During the hydrogenation, the Cr(CO)3 unit facilitate differentiation of the two prochiral faces of the substrate double bond via formation of a three-dimensional complex with one of the aromatic rings by selective arene exchange. Density functional theory calculations reveal that during the hydrogenation, chromium coordination affected π-π stacking of the substrate and the catalyst ligand, leading to differentiation of the prochiral faces.

Abstract
Weakly coordinating anions (WCAs) facilitate the stabilization and isolation of highly reactive and almost "naked" cations. Alkoxyaluminate-based WCAs such as [Al(OC(CF3)3)4]- ([pf]-) are widely used due to their synthetic accessibility and their high stability. However, small cations are still able to coordinate the oxygen atoms of the [pf]- anion or even to abstract an alkoxy ligand. The novel WCA [Al(OC10F15)4]- ([pfAd]-; OC10F15 = perfluoro-1-adamantoxy) is characterized by a very rigid core framework, thus indicating a higher stability towards fluoride-ion abstraction (DFT calculations) and providing hope to generate less disordered crystal structures. The [pfAd]- anion was generated by the reaction of the highly acidic alcohol perfluoro-1-adamantanol C10F15OH with LiAlH4 in o-DFB. Li[pfAd] could not be synthesized free of impurities (and still contains unreacted alcohol). Yet, starting from contaminated Li[pfAd], the very useful pure salts Ag[pfAd], [Ph3C][pfAd] and [H(OEt2)2][pfAd] could be synthesized. The salts were characterized by NMR spectroscopy, single-crystal X-ray diffraction and IR spectroscopy. Additionally, [NO][pfAd] could be synthesized containing alcohol impurities but nonetheless enabled the synthesis of the salt P9+[pfAd]-. The synthesis of Tl[pfAd] in a mixture of H2O/acetone/o-DFB demonstrated the water stability of the [pfAd]- anion.

Abstract
Central chirality is an important chiral element used in the design of chiral ligands and catalysts. Mostly, the attention of organic chemists is focused on developing of chiral ligands with stable stereogenic centers. However, the N-chirality in chiral ligand design has been rarely explored due to its flexibility. Here we demonstrate the design, synthesis, and application of a class of simple P,N-ligands with flexible N-chirality and their derived iridium complexes with fixed N-chiral stereocenters. Both fixed configurations of the N-stereocenter of the iridium complexes could be selectively formed from the same chiral ligand. This pair of diastereoisomeric iridium complexes showed good performance in the enantiodivergent asymmetric hydrogenation of exocyclic α,β-unsaturated lactams. The N-H group plays an impressive role in catalytic activity. Computational studies emphasized the importance of N-chirality and N-H group.

Abstract
The Ir-MaxPHOX-type catalysts demonstrated high catalytic performance in the hydrogenation of a wide range of nonchelating olefins with different geometries, substitution patterns, and degrees of functionalization. These air-stable and readily available catalysts have been successfully applied in the asymmetric hydrogenation of di-, tri-, and tetrasubstituted olefins (ee's up to 99%). The combination of theoretical calculations and deuterium labeling experiments led to the uncovering of the factors responsible for the enantioselectivity observed in the reaction, allowing the rationalization of the most suitable substrates for these Ir-catalysts.

Abstract
Herein, we report an efficient iridium-catalyzed double asymmetric hydrogenation of 2,5-dialkylienecyclopentanones, delivering the chiral 2,5-disubstituted cyclopentanones in excellent yields and stereoselectivities. The results of the kinetic experiments and control experiments indicated that the two C═C bonds were hydrogenated in a stepwise manner and the second stereocenter was synergistically controlled by the chiral catalyst and the chirality of monohydrogenated product. The hydrogenated products can be prepared on a gram-scale and are easily derivatized.

Abstract
Chiral iridium complexes derived from Crabtree's catalyst are highly useful in modern hydrogenations of olefins attributed to high reactivity, stereoselectivity, and stability. Despite that these precatalysts are pH neutral, the reaction mixtures turn acidic under hydrogenation conditions. This Perspective is devoted to the implications of the intrinsic Brønsted acidity of catalytic intermediates in asymmetric hydrogenation of olefins. Despite that the acidity has often been used only as a rationale for side-product formation, more recent methodologies have started to use this property advantageously. We hope that this Perspective serves as a stimulant for the development of such compelling and new asymmetric hydrogenations. The inherent scientific opportunities in utilizing or annihilating the generated Brønsted acid are enormous, and potential new innovations are outlined toward the end.

Abstract
The exceptional versatility of sulfones has been extensively exploited in organic synthesis across several decades. Since the first demonstration in 2005 that sulfones can participate in Pd-catalysed Suzuki-Miyaura type reactions, tremendous advances in catalytic desulfitative functionalizations have opened a new area of research with burgeoning activity in recent years. This emerging field is displaying sulfone derivatives as a new class of substrates enabling catalytic C-C and C-X bond construction. In this review, we will discuss new facets of sulfone reactivity toward further expanding the flexibility of C-S bonds, with an emphasis on key mechanistic features. The inherent challenges confronting the development of these strategies will be presented, along with the potential application of this chemistry for the synthesis of natural products. Taken together, this knowledge should stimulate impactful improvements on the use of sulfones in catalytic desulfitative C-C and C-X bond formation. A main goal of this article is to bring this technology to the mainstream catalysis practice and to serve as inspiration for new perspectives in catalytic transformations.

Abstract
The asymmetric hydroaminocarbonylation of olefins represents a straightforward approach for the synthesis of enantioenriched amides, but is hampered by the necessity to employ CO gas, often at elevated pressures. We herein describe, as an alternative, an enantioselective hydrocarbamoylation of alkenes leveraging dual copper hydride and palladium catalysis to enable the use of readily available carbamoyl chlorides as a practical carbamoylating reagent. The protocol is applicable to various types of olefins, including alkenyl arenes, terminal alkenes, and 1,1-disubstituted alkenes. Substrates containing a diverse range of functional groups as well as heterocyclic substructures undergo functionalization to provide α- and β-chiral amides in good yields and with excellent enantioselectivities.

Abstract
Abstract
Luminescent quantum dots (QDs) represent a new form of carbon nanomaterials which have gained widespread attention in recent years, especially in the area of chemical sensing, bioimaging, nanomedicine, solar cells, light-emitting diode (LED), and electrocatalysis. Their extremely small size renders some unusual properties such as quantum confinement effects, good surface binding properties, high surface‐to‐volume ratios, broad and intense absorption spectra in the visible region, optical and electronic properties different from those of bulk materials. Apart from, during the past few years, QDs offer new and versatile ways to serve as photocatalysts in organic synthesis. Quantum dots (QD) have band gaps that could be nicely controlled by a number of factors in a complicated way, mentioned in the article. Processing, structure, properties and applications are also reviewed for semiconducting quantum dots. Overall, this review aims to summarize the recent innovative applications of QD or its modified nanohybrid as efficient, robust, photoassisted redox catalysts in C–C and C-heteroatom bond forming reactions. The recent structural modifications of QD or its core structure in the development of new synthetic methodologies are also highlighted. Following a primer on the structure, properties, and bio-functionalization of QDs, herein selected examples of QD as a recoverable sustainable nanocatalyst in various green media are embodied for future reference.

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
The enantioselective separation of a racemic mixture of amino acids was achieved by chiral amino acid-modified polystyrene (PS) that was developed by a post-polymer modification approach. Styrene was polymerized using the reversible addition-fragmentation chain-transfer (RAFT) polymerization technique and further post-polymer modification was applied by Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction with chiral N-phthaloyl-l-leucine acid chloride to obtain the protected PS-l-Leu. The chiral PS (protected PS-l-Leu) was assembled into microspheres using a surfactant and was used for carrying out the enantioselective separation of amino acid racemic mixtures by enantioselective adsorption followed by a simple filtration process. Compared to as-precipitated chiral PS (protected PS-l-Leu) powder, the protected PS-l-Leu microspheres exhibited a better enantioselective separation efficiency (ee %). Furthermore, the protected PS-l-Leu was deprotected to obtain the amine-functionalized deprotected PS-l-Leu chiral PS, which was also assembled into microspheres and used for carrying out enantioselective separation. Deprotected PS-l-Leu-functionalized chiral PS microspheres could achieve up to 81.6 ee % for the enantioselective separation of a racemic mixture of leucine. This is one of the first reports of the synthesis of amino acid-modified chiral PS microspheres and their application to the simple filtration-based enantioselective separation of native amino acids from their racemic mixtures.

Abstract
A highly efficient N,P-ligated iridium complex is presented for the simple preparation of chiral tetrahydro-3-benzazepine motifs by catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation. Substrates bearing both 1-aryl and 1-alkyl substituents were smoothly converted to the corresponding hydrogenated product with excellent enantioselectivity (91-99% ee) and in isolated yield (92-99%). The synthetic value of this transformation was demonstrated by a gram-scale hydrogenation and application in the syntheses of trepipam and fenoldopam.

Abstract
Asymmetric alkene hydroamination could be a direct route to valuable chiral amines from abundant feedstocks. However, most asymmetric hydroaminations have limited synthetic value because they require a large excess of alkene, occur with modest enantioselectivity, and proceed with limited tolerance of functional groups. We report an enantioselective, intermolecular hydroamination of unactivated terminal alkenes that occurs with equimolar amounts of alkene and amine, tolerates many functional groups, and occurs in high yield, with high enantioselectivity and turnover numbers. Mechanistic studies revealed factors, including reversibility of the addition, reversible oxidation of the product amine, competing isomerization of the alkene reactant, and unfavorable replacement of sacrificial ligands in standard catalyst precursors by the chiral bisphosphine, that needed to be addressed to achieve enantioselective N-H additions to alkenes.
