Using a “chiral pool” approach, a number of chiral thiolate and sulfide ligands based on natural terpenes and terpenoids have been synthesized in a few simple steps. Two new Rh-thiolate complexes with the formula [Rh(CO)2(μ-SR)]2 were obtained. The influence of these complexes and catalytic systems formed by combining the synthesized ligands with [Rh(CO)2(μ-Cl)]2 and [Rh(cod)(μ-Cl)]2, on the reaction rate, chemoselectivity, stereoselectivity and formation of tetraphenyldisiloxane in Rh-catalyzed asymmetric hydrosilylation of acetophenone as a model reaction have been studied. Mechanistic aspects of formation of silyl enol ether as a side product in the presence of S-containing ligands are presented. |
