Abstract
A mild catalyst system for the synthesis of chiral amino alcohols via asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of α-phthalimide ketones has been developed by using a chiral Ru-TsDPEN complex as the catalyst in DMF/MeOH at 40 °C. The reaction exhibits high reaction activity and excellent enantioselectivity where up to 96% yield and 99% ee of the product were obtained.
