Abstract

A method for enantioselective hydrogenation of cyclic imines with gaseous hydrogen has been developed. Easily accessible Noyori–Ikariya Ru(II) and Rh(III) complexes can be used directly without an inert atmosphere. Substrate activation has been achieved by trifluoroacetic acid. A new hydroxyl-functionalized complex is reported, showing high activity in transfer hydrogenation.
