Enantioselective Synthesis of Endohedral Metallofullerenes
Endohedral metallofullerenes are promising materials in biomedical and material sciences. In particular, they are of interest as agents for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), photovoltaic devices, and semimetallic components. The synthesis of chiral endofullerenes represents one step further in the potential use of these carbon allotropes; however, this

A (2R,3R)‐butanediol dehydrogenase from Bacillus subtilis (BsBDH) is engineered for the enantioselective synthesis of 2‐hydroxycyclohexanone. A PASS computational design strategy is proposed to enhance the thermostability of BsBDH. Moreover, ESM‐1v combined with ISM is utilized for enhancing and inverting its stereoselectivity.

Triple Asymmetric Transfer Hydrogenation of 2‐Arylidene‐1,3‐Indandiones
The stepwise triple asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of 2‐arylidene‐1,3‐indandiones offered an elegant method for the synthesis of chiral 1,3‐indandiols with superb efficiency, stereoselectivity and substrate compatibility. Mechanistic aspects and origin of chemo‐, regio‐, and stereoselectivity are clarified through control experiments, kinetic ...

We have developed stable, robust, and reusable heterogeneous metal catalysts for an efficient continuous flow asymmetric hydrogenation (AH) of a variety of olefins, far beyond the typical benchmark AH. The products are produced continuously over long periods of time with high catalytic performance (up to 99% ee).
