Enantioselective Synthesis of Alcohols and Amines by Iridium‐Catalyzed Hydrogenation, Transfer Hydrogenation, and Related Processes

Year: 2013

Type: article

Abstract: The preparation of chiral alcohols and amines by using iridium catalysis is reviewed. The methods presented include the reduction of ketones or imines by using hydrogen (hydrogenations), isopropanol, formic acid, or formate (transfer hydrogenations). Also dynamic and oxidative kinetic resolutions leading to chiral alcohols and amines are included. Selected literature reports from early contributions to December 2012 are discussed.
