ASYMMETRIC HYDROGENATION OF .BETA.-KETO ESTERS

Enantiomerically pure .beta.-hydroxy esters are prepared by a process in which .beta.-keto esters are reacted with hydrogen in the presence of catalysts of the formula LRuX2 where X is halogen, acetate, allyl, methallyl, 2-phenylallyl, perchlorate, trifluoroacetate, tetrafluoroborate, hexafluoroanti...

Zusammenfassung:Enantiomerically pure .beta.-hydroxy esters are prepared by a process in which .beta.-keto esters are reacted with hydrogen in the presence of catalysts of the formula LRuX2 where X is halogen, acetate, allyl, methallyl, 2-phenylallyl, perchlorate, trifluoroacetate, tetrafluoroborate, hexafluoroantimonate, hexafluorophosphate, hexafluoroarsenate or trichloroacetate, L is a bidentate phospholane of the formula I where B = a bridging link with 1 - 5 carbon atoms between the two phosphorus atoms, R1 = H, C1 - C6-alkyl, aryl, alkylaryl or SiR2 3, R2 = alkyl or aryl, m = 0 or 1, R3 = H or OR4, and R4 = R1, with the proviso that if m= 1 then R3 = H and if m = 0 then R3 .noteq.
