Methylcyclohexyl-O-anisylphosphine
Abstract
Abstract Process for the homogeneous catalytic hydrogenation of beta -substituted- alpha -acylamido-acrylic acids which yields, after hydrogenation, an optically active mixture. The process comprises the hydrogenation of beta -substituted- alpha -acylamido-acrylic acids in the presence of an optically active coordinated metal complex hydrogenation catalyst, in which the metal is selected from the group consisting of rhodium, iridium, ruthenium, osmium, palladium and platinum. This process is a generalized process for any asymmetric hydrogenation of beta -substituted- alpha -acylamido-acrylic acids in which one alpha -amino acid enantiomorph is the desired end-product. It is especially useful for the preparation of alpha -amino acids found in nature which possess optical activity and which have a hydrogen attached to the asymmetric center. This invention also relates to new optically active coordinated metal complex hydrogenation catalysts.
