This work presented the synthesis and characterization of new ionic liquid-coordinating ruthenium complexes. The resulting ruthenium complexes exhibited not only excellent thermoregulated phase-separation behavior but also highly catalytic activity and enantioselectivity for the asymmetric hydrogenation with molecular hydrogen. The thermoregulated ionic liquid catalyst was highly resistant to leaching and was recycled consecutively for six times without significant loss of catalytic activity and enantioselectivity. The presence of Ru–H species revealed that NH and a Ru–H unit, involved in the hydride transfer process, were of great importance in the present catalytic system.

A set of iridium(I) and iridium(III) complexes is reported with triazolylidene ligands that contain pendant benzoxazole, thiazole, and methyl ether groups as potentially chelating donor sites. The bonding mode of these groups was identified by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray structure analysis. The complexes were evaluated as catalyst precursors in transfer hydrogenation and in acceptorless alcohol oxidation. High-valent iridium(III) complexes were identified as the most active precursors for the oxidative alcohol dehydrogenation, while a low-valent iridium(I) complex with a methyl ether functionality was most active in reductive transfer hydrogenation. This catalyst precursor is highly versatile and efficiently hydrogenates ketones, aldehydes, imines, allylic alcohols, and most notably also unpolarized olefins, a notoriously difficult substrate for transfer hydrogenation. Turnover frequencies up to 260 h-1 were recorded for olefin hydrogenation, whereas hydrogen transfer to ketones and aldehydes reached maximum turnover frequencies greater than 2000 h-1. Mechanistic investigations using a combination of isotope labeling experiments, kinetic isotope effect measurements, and Hammett parameter correlations indicate that the turnover-limiting step is hydride transfer from the metal to the substrate in transfer hydrogenation, while in alcohol dehydrogenation, the limiting step is substrate coordination to the metal center.

In this article, the design and synthesis of the chiral camphor derived γ-amino thiol ligand 17 and its application in catalytic enantioselective carbon-carbon forming reactions through the addition of organozinc reagents to carbonyl compounds is described. The catalytic activity and enantioselectivity of ligand 17 is demonstrated in the enantioselective addition of various organozinc reagents to aldehydes and ketoesters, offering the corresponding alcohols in high yields and enantioselectivities. The role of the mercapto group in the highly enantioselective 1,2-addition reaction of organozincs to aldehyde is also discussed.
