Synthesis of Enantiomerically Pure and Racemic Benzyl-Tethered Ru(II)/TsDPEN Complexes by Direct Arene Substitution: Further Complexes and Applications
2018
The use of a direct arene-exchange method for the synthesis of benzyl-tethered arene/Ru/TsDPEN complexes for use in asymmetric transfer hydrogenation is reported. A series of complexes tethered through a three-carbon linear chain was also prepared. The arene-exchange approach significantly simplifies the synthetic approach to this class of catalyst and permits the ready formation of modified analogues. The approach also provides a route to racemic catalysts for use in general reductions with either hydrogen or transfer hydrogenation.
