A series of Mn(I) catalysts containing imidazole-based chiral PNN tridentate ligands with controllable ‘side arm’ groups have been established, enabling the inexpensive base-promoted asymmetric hydrogenation of simple ketones with outstanding activities (up to 8200 TON) and good enantioselectivities (up to 88.5% ee). This protocol features wide substrate scope and functional group tolerance, thereby providing easy access to a key intermediate of crizotinib.

Chiral diphosphine/1,2-diamine–Ru(II) complexes catalyse the rapid, productive and enantioselective hydrogenation of simple ketones. The carbonyl-selective hydrogenation takes place via a non-classical metal–ligand bifunctional mechanism. The reduction of the C=O function occurs in the outer coordination sphere of an 18e trans -RuH 2 (diphosphine)(diamine) complex without interaction between the unsaturated moiety and the metallic centre. The Ru atom donates a hydride and the NH 2 ligand delivers a proton through a pericyclic six-membered transition state, directly giving an alcoholic product without metal alkoxide formation. The enantiofaces of prochiral ketones are differentiated on the chiral molecular surface of the saturated RuH 2 species. This asymmetric catalysis manifests the significance of ‘kinetic’ supramolecular chemistry.
