ChemInform Abstract: Synthesis of Air‐ and Moisture‐Stable, Storable Chiral Oxorhenium Complexes and Their Application as Catalysts for the Enantioselective Imine Reduction.

Abstract

AbstractThe new catalysts are applied to the asymmetric reduction of a wide range of ketimines, the syntheses of enantiopure α‐amino esters, γ‐ and δ‐lactams, isoindolinones, and pharmaceutically relevant targets, such as (R)‐(+)‐salsolidine and (R)‐(+)‐crispine A.
