The synthesis of chiral α-acyloxy carboxamides containing two stereogenic centers continues to be a challenging field of organic chemistry. Herein, we have proposed and proved the feasibility of an enzyme regulated-cascade reaction, which using the same substrates enables the formation of individual stereoisomers of α-acyloxy carboxamides with up to 99 % ee. The access to the individual stereoisomeric products has been achieved by a combination of the enzymatic kinetic resolution of racemic vinyl esters, subsequent Passerini reaction, and enzymatic kinetic resolution of formed α-acyloxy carboxamides. The presented studies are promising in exploratory proof-of-concept of enzyme-controlled stereodivergent cascade to form an important class of chiral compounds for medicinal chemistry.

Silica-supported copper nanoparticles prepared via surface organometallic chemistry are highly efficient for the selective hydrogenation of various α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds yielding the corresponding saturated esters, ketones, and aldehydes in the absence of additives. High conversions and selectivities (>99%) are obtained for most substrates upon hydrogenation at 100-150 °C and under 25 bar of H2.
Pyrrolidine-Based P,O Ligands from Carbohydrates: Easily Accessible and Modular Ligands for the Ir-Catalyzed Asymmetric Hydrogenation of Minimally Functionalized Olefins

The potential of P,O-iminosugar based ligands in the Ir-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of minimally functionalized olefins is presented. These new ligands were prepared from easily available carbohydrates (D-mannose, D-ribose and D-arabinose). The stereochemical and polyfunctional diversity of carbohydrates allowed the modulation of the ligands, both from their electronic properties and the rigidity of their backbone. High enantioselectivities (ee’s up to 99 %) can be reached in the hydrogenation of selected tri- and disubstituted substrates.
