Research Abstract

Trichlorosilane (Cl_3SiH) may be one of the candidates sicne it is cheap and easy to handle and has already been used in a larage scale for the reduction of easily reducible compounds as exemplified by transforming phosphine oxide to phosphine (BINAP) and N-acyliminium ion to N-acylamine (herbicide). However, its use for the reduction of ketones is rather limited because of the low reactivity toward ketones. We found that N-formylated pyrrolidine derivatives are efficient catalysts for the activation of Cl_3SiH to reduce ketones, and also that enantiomerically enriched sec-alcohols can be formed with up to 51 % ee when optically active activator was used. This reagent has 7 characteristics described bellow.
1. This is a first example that a catalytic amount of organic molecules can activate Cl_3SiH to reduce ketones.
2. Using L-proline derivatives as activators afford optically active alcohols from ketones.
3. ^<29>Si-NMR indicates the formation of hypervalent silicate species.
4. This reducing reagent has high regioselectivity, diastereoselectivity, and ability of discrimination of substituents.
5. This reducing reagent is highly imino-selective.
6. Using L-proline derivatives as activators afford optically active amines from imines.
7. Trichlorosilane derivatives mediatealdol reaction between N, O-acetals and ketones.
