Asymmetric Transfer Hydrogenation of Unhindered and Non-Electron-Rich 1-Aryl Dihydroisoquinolines with High Enantioselectivity

The use of arene/Ru/TsDPEN catalysts bearing a heterocyclic group on the TsDPEN in the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of dihydroisoquinolines (DHIQs) containing meta- or para-substituted a...
