Abstract
AbstractThe cobalt–salen complex (C1:[(salen)Co3+(OAc)]; salen= N,N′‐bis(salicylidene)ethylenediamine, OAc=acetate) was found to efficiently promote the hydration of terminal alkynes to give methyl ketones in the presence of the H2SO4 cocatalyst. In addition, the one‐pot transformation of alkynes into chiral alcohols through tandem catalysis by catalyst C1 coupled with a ruthenium–TsDPEN complex (C3: [(R,R‐TsDPEN)Ru2+(cymene)]; TsDPEN=(1R,2R)‐N‐(p‐toluenesulfonyl)‐1,2‐diphenylethylenediamine, cymene=1‐methyl‐4‐(1‐methylethyl)benzene) catalyst was realized with excellent yields and enantioselectivities.
