Abstract

Optically active α-1-arylalkylamine derivatives were successfully synthesized through heterogeneous asymmetric hydrogenation of α-arylenamides over immobilized RhBPE and RhDUPHOS complexes on aluminum-containing M41S and SBA-15 type materials. The heterogeneous chiral catalysts were prepared by immobilization of rhodium diphosphine complexes on Al-MCM-41, Al-MCM-48, and Al-SBA-15. The complexes were bonded to ...
