Abstract
Two β‐receptor agonists (−)‐denopamine and (−)‐arbutamine were prepared in good yields and enantioselectivities by asymmetric hydrogenation of unprotected amino ketones for the first time by using Rh catalysts bearing electron‐donating phosphine ligands. A series of α‐primary and secondary amino ketones were synthesized and hydrogenated to produce various 1,2‐amino alcohols in good yields and with good enantioselectivies. This Rh electron‐donating phosphine‐catalyzed asymmetric hyderogenation represents one of the most promising and convenient approaches towards the asymmetric synthesis of chiral amino alcohols.
