Popis: | The effect of the structure of chiral modifiers derived from natural cinchona alkaloids on the enantioselectivity and rate of the Pt/Al2O3-catalyzed hydrogenation of ethyl pyruvate was investigated. The influence of the following structural elements was studied: the cinchonidine versus the cinchonine backbone; effect of the nature and the size of substituents attached to C9; effect of partial hydrogenation of the quinoline ring; effects of changes of the substituent at the quinuclidine moiety. The strongest effects on ee and somewhat less on rate were observed for changes in the O−C9−C8−N part of the cinchona alkaloid and for partial or total hydrogenation of the quinoline rings. The nature of the substituents in the quinuclidine part had a comparably minor influence. The solvent was found to have a significant effect on enantioselectivity and rate. In acetic acid, the best results were obtained with O-methyl-10,11-diydrocinchonidine (ee's up to 93%), whereas dihydrocinchonidine was the most effective mo... |
