Asymmetric hydrogenation of esters through homogeneous catalysis is a significantly important transformation in organic synthesis. The systems developed so far mainly focused on chiral iridium and ruthenium catalysts, which required a base to facilitate the activity. Herein, we present a palladium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of lactones under base-free conditions through dynamic kinetic resolution and kinetic resolution. The reaction exhibits high enantioselectivity and excellent function ...[more]
