Asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of cyclic and acyclic alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones catalysed by eta(6)-p-cymene/ruthenium(II) and eta(5)-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl/rhodium(III) complexes have been investigated. Cyclic or alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones appeared to be more Suitable substrates for the synthesis of enantiomerically pure allylic alcohols than do acyclic alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones. A proposed mechanism for the formation of 4-phenyl-[1,3]-dioxolan-2-one from alpha-tosyloxy- and halo-substituted acetophenones is discussed. The results of further investigations into the reduction of a range of alpha-tosyloxyacetophenones and the dynamic kinetic resolution of alpha-substituted ketones is presented. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd.
