Conjugated microporous polymers with chiral BINAP ligand built-in as efficient catalysts for asymmetric hydrogenation

Abstract

A series of chiral conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs) based on the chiral (R)-BINAP ligand (BINAP-CMPs) were synthesized with tunable BET surface areas. These solid catalysts show high activities and enantioselectivities for the asymmetric hydrogenation of β-keto esters after coordination with ruthenium species. Moreover, CMPs can realize spatial isolation. Through preventing the formation of dimers and trimers, BINAP-CMPs show much higher activity than BINAP for the Ir-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of quinaldine.
