In 2018,Lou, Yazhou; Hu, Yutao; Lu, Jiaxiang; Guan, Fanfu; Gong, Gelin; Yin, Qin; Zhang, Xumu published 《Dynamic Kinetic Asymmetric Reductive Amination: Synthesis of Chiral Primary β-Amino Lactams》.Angewandte Chemie, International Edition published the findings.Computed Properties of C38H28O4P2 The information in the text is summarized as follows:

A highly efficient ruthenium-catalyzed asym. reductive amination (ARA) of racemic β-keto lactams with mol. hydrogen and ammonium salts is disclosed for the synthesis of enantiomerically pure primary amino lactams through dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR). By this approach, a range of syn primary β-amino lactams I (R= Me, Et, iso-Pr etc. n= 1, 2) were obtained in high yields with high chemo-, enantio-, and diastereoselectivity (up to 98 % yield, 99 % ee, >20:1 d.r., syn products). The utility of the products has been demonstrated by rapid access to a key synthetic intermediate towards biol. active drug mols. Meanwhile, mechanistic studies and control experiments indicate that the reaction may proceed through the hydrogenation of an iminium intermediate. In the experiment, the researchers used (S)-5,5′-Bis(diphenylphosphino)-4,4′-bi-1,3-benzodioxole(cas: 210169-54-3Computed Properties of C38H28O4P2)
