Recent theoretical efforts to elucidate the origin of enantioselectivity in transition metal‐catalyzed propargylic substitution reactions are highlighted in this review. ABSTRACT In recent years, asymmetric catalytic propargylic substitution reactions have undergone remarkable development, enabling the construction of chiral carbon centers adjacent to ...

Threefold reduction of 9,10,11‐triptindanetrione with LiAlH4 or NaBH4 yields exclusively the C3‐symmetric triol, suggesting an intracomplex (“rolling”) mechanism. However, use of LiAlH4/LiAlD4 (1 : 1) reveals a preceding hydride exchange. Mechanistic implications are discussed including the reduction of the related diketone.

An improved synthesis of a manganese catalyst used for hydrogenation of ketones, esters and imines is reported. The catalyst has now been found to effect tandem conjugate reduction‐ester hydrogenations with very low amounts of allylic alcohol by‐products.
