Title:
ASYMMETRIC 1,4-REDUCTIONS OF AND 1,4-ADDITIONS TO ENOATES AND RELATED SYSTEMS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2001019761
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
One aspect of the present invention relates to methods for the transition-metal-catalyzed asymmetric 1,4-addition of a nucleophile, e.g., hydride, to cyclic and acyclic enoates and enones. In certain embodiments of the methods of the present invention, the transition metal catalyst consists essentially of copper and an asymmetric bidentate biphosphine ligand.
