Abstract
Chiral diols with three contiguous stereocenters were synthesized by a highly enantioselective ruthenium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of racemic α,α'-disubstituted cycloketones involving dynamic kinetic resolution. This new catalytic asymmetric method provides a concise route to the alkaloid (+)-γ-lycorane.
