This study developed a cost-efficient hydration/asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) process for the one-pot synthesis of valuable chiral alcohols from alkynes. During this process, the initial homogeneous cobaloxime-catalyzed hydration of alkynes was followed by heterogeneous Ru/diamine-catalyzed ATH transformation of the <i>in-situ</i> generated ketones, which provided varieties of chiral alcohols in good yields with up to 99% <i>ee</i> values. The immobilized Ru/diamine catalyst could be r ...[more]
