Abstract: | The enantioface-discriminating hydrogen transfer reduction of αβ-unsaturaged acids takes place at 120°C in the presence of H4Ru4(CO)8[()-DIOP]2. Secondary alcohols are satisfactory hydrogen donors. Selectivity, optical yields, and rates are lower than those obtained when working in the presence of hydrogen under pressure. |
