Abstract
The enantiomers of Propranolol, Pindolol, and Carazolol, well-known be ta-blockers, have been used to prepare cationic aminophosphine phosphi nite rhodium complexes. Propraphos-Rh and Pindophos-Rh are very effici ent catalysts in the asymmetric hydrogenation of N-Boc-protected unusu al dehydroamino acid derivatives. Carazolol-Rh is less suitable in bot h activity and enantioselectivity. Under the same conditions, N-Boc-pr otected dehydrodipeptides are hydrogenated with diastereoselectivities between 70 and 90% de. Chirality 10:535-539, 1998. (C) 1998 Wiley-Lis s, Inc.
