Abstract A catalytic complex made from [Ir (COD) Cl] 2 [di-μ-chloro-bis (1, 5-cyclooctadiene) diiridium (I)] precursor and (S, S)-f-Binaphane ((R, R)-1, 1′-bis {(R)-4, 5-dihydro-3H- dinaphtho [1, 2-c: 2′, 1′-e] phosphepino} ferrocene) ligand effectively catalyzed the enantioselective hydrogenation of cyclic imines with high reactivity and good enantioselectivity.
