Abstract

In the presence of a small amount of RuXz [(R)-or (S)-BINAPI (X= anionic ligand) a wide range of (Z)-2-acyl-l-benzylidene-1, 2, 3, 4-tetrahydroisoquinolines are hydrogenated to give the saturated produch in nearly quantitative yields and in high (up to 100%) optical yields. The enamide substrates are selectively prepared by N-acylation of the corresponding 1- benzylated 3, 4-dihydroisoquinolines under suitable acylation conditions; some crystalline ...
