Direct asymmetric hydrogenation of α-keto acids by using the highly efficient chiral spiro iridium catalysts

Abstract

A new efficient and highly enantioselective direct asymmetric hydrogenation of α-keto acids employing the Ir/SpiroPAP catalyst under mild reaction conditions has been developed. This method might be feasible for the preparation of a series of chiral α-hydroxy acids on a large scale.
