Abstract
AbstractAutoclave assisted, RUCY‐XylBINAP catalyzed enantioselective conversion of pro‐chiral biaryl ketones, 12 to chiral benzhydrols, 13 a‐a1 (biphenyl methanol) through asymmetric hydrogenation with great enantiomeric excess (>99%) is reported. The Sodium borohydride (SBH) reduction of, 12 to racemic benzhydrols, 13 b‐h have also been presented. The compounds structures were affirmed by their spectral studies (1H, 13C and mass) and chiral purity was analyzed by utilizing SFC (Supercritical fluid chromatography) technique.
