3-Arylidenechroman-4-ones and 2-arylidene-1-tetralones are hydrogenated to cis-benzylic
alcohols in dr's and er's up to 99: 1 via a C═ C and C═ O one-pot reduction in the presence …

The oxo-tethered-Ru (II) precatalyst promoted the one-pot C═ C/C═ O reduction of
chalcones using sodium formate as the hydrogen source in water through asymmetric …

Asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) has been recognized as a highly valuable strategy
that allows access to enantioenriched substances and has been widely applied in the …

Developing a general, highly efficient, and enantioselective catalytic method for the
synthesis of chiral alcohols is still a formidable challenge. We report in this article the …

A series of novel and readily prepared ferrocene-based multidentate phosphine ligands (f-
PNNO) have been developed and successfully used in iridium-catalyzed enantioselective 1 …

Recent advances in the desilylative acylation of 1-alkenylsilanes with acid anhydrides under
transition metal catalysis are summarized. This catalytic desilylative acylation of 1 …

The quest for general and highly efficient and enantioselective catalytic route to chiral
