Abstract
Asymmetric hydrogenation of (E)-4-phenyl-3-buten-2-one by use of [Ir(binap)(cod)]BF4 and o-di-methylaminophenyldiphenylphosphine afforded (E)-4-phenyl-3-buten-2-ol in 97% chemoselectivity and in 65% enantiomeric excess. A mixed ligand iridium dihydride complex containing both BINAP and the aminophosphine ligand has been shown to be the catalytically active species.
