We report a strategy to develop heterogeneous single-site enantioselective catalysts based on naturally occurring amino acids and earth-abundant metals for eco-friendly asymmetric catalysis. The grafting of amino acids within the pores of a metal-organic framework (MOF), followed by post-synthetic metalation with iron precursor, affords highly active and enantioselective (>99 % ee for 10 examples) catalysts for hydrosilylation and hydroboration of carbonyl compounds. Impressively, the MOF-Fe catalyst displayed high turnover numbers of up to 10 000 and was recycled and reused more than 15 times without diminishing the enantioselectivity. MOF-Fe displayed much higher activity and enantioselectivity than its homogeneous control catalyst, likely due to the formation of robust single-site catalyst in the MOF through site-isolation.
Method for synthesizing secondary alcohol in water phase

Paragraph 0031-0032, (2021/07/14)
The invention discloses a method for synthesizing secondary alcohol in a water phase. The method comprises the following steps: taking ketone as a raw material, selecting water as a solvent, and carrying out catalytic hydrogenation reaction on the ketone in the presence of a water-soluble catalyst to obtain the secondary alcohol, wherein the catalyst is a metal iridium complex [Cp * Ir (2, 2'-bpyO)(OH)][Na]. Water is used as the solvent, so that the use of an organic solvent is avoided, and the method is more environment-friendly; the reaction is carried out at relatively low temperature and normal pressure, and the reaction conditions are mild; alkali is not needed in the reaction, so that generation of byproducts is avoided; and the conversion rate of the raw materials is high, and the yield of the obtained product is high. The method not only has academic research value, but also has a certain industrialization prospect.
Rhodium-Catalyzed Regiodivergent Synthesis of Alkylboronates via Deoxygenative Hydroboration of Aryl Ketones: Mechanism and Origin of Selectivities

Here, we report an efficient rhodium-catalyzed deoxygenative borylation of ketones to synthesize alkylboronates, in which the regioselectivity can be switched by the choice of the ligand. The linear alkylboronates were obtained exclusively in the presence of P(nBu)3, and PPh2Me favored the formation of branched alkylboronates. The protocol also allows access to 1,1,2-triboronates from the readily available ketones. Mechanistic studies suggest that this Rh-catalyzed deoxygenative borylation of ketones goes through an alkene intermediate, which undergoes regiodivergent hydroboration to afford linear and branched alkylboronates. The different steric effects of PPh2Me and P(nBu)3 were found to be responsible for product selectivity by density functional theory calculations. The alkene intermediate can alternatively undergo sequential dehydrogenative borylation and hydroboration to deliver the triboronates.
