✦ Synopsis
Enantioselective Hydrogenation of β-Keto Sulfones with Chiral Ru(II)-Catalysts: Synthesis of Enantiomerically Pure Butenolides and γ-Butyrolactones.
-A highly enantioselective synthesis of chiral β-hydroxy sulfones (II), (VII) and (XII) is presented involving a novel ruthenium-catalyzed hydrogenation of the corresponding β-keto sulfones (I), (VI) and (XI) using chiral MeO-biphep ligands. The synthetic utility of these optically pure hydroxy sulfones is demonstrated in the preparation of some optically active butenolides (IV), (VIII) and γ-butyrolactones (V), (X).
