Asymmetric Hydrogenation of Tetrasubstituted α,β-Unsaturated Ketones: Access to Chiral 2‑Substituted Cyclopentyl Aryl Ketones

Asymmetric hydrogenation of tetrasubstituted alkenes is an important but challenging research topic. Herein, we report an efficient iridium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of tetrasubstituted α,β-unsaturated ketones for the synthesis of chiral 2-substituted cyclopentyl aryl ketones, an important...
