Popis: | The 4-aryl-3, 4-dihydrocoumarin1 is a critical intermediate in the synthesis of two endothelin receptor antagonists. Asymmetry is introduced by the chiral catalytic hydrogenation of2. Reduction occurs only if the lactone is open (3). A number of chiral ruthenium and rhodium organometallic species are evaluated as catalysts. The reaction is optimized to produce1 in high yield andee. Asymmetry is introduced in 4-aryl-3, 4-dihydrocoumarin by the chiral catalytic hydrogenation of a coumarin.
