Enantioselective hydrogenation of tetrasubstituted alkenes to form 1,2-contiguous stereocenters is a particularly appealing but highly challenging transformation in asymmetric catalysis. Despite the notable progress achieved in enantioselective hydrogenation over the past decades, enantioselective hydrogenation of all-carbon tetrasubstituted alkenes containing multiple alkyl groups remains an unsolved challenge. Here, we report a rhodium-catalyzed highly diastereo- and enantioselective hydrogenation of diverse acyclic multisubstituted alkenes under mild conditions.

Chiral γ-amino alcohols are prevalent structural motifs in natural products and bioactive compounds. Nevertheless, efficient and atom-economical synthetic methods toward enantiomerically enriched γ-amino alcohols are still lacking. In this study, a highly enantioselective rhodium-catalyzed reductive hydroformylation of readily available α-substituted enamides is developed, providing a series of pharmaceutically valuable chiral 1,3-amino alcohols in good yields and excellent enantioselectivities in a single step.

The directing group (DG)-assisted approach has so far been the major route to achieve selective C-H activation at both proximal and distal positions. While rhodium catalysts are highly effective in DG-assisted ortho-C-H arylation, meta-C-H arylation with rhodium has not yet been reported. In this study, we present the first example of Rh-catalyzed meta-C-H arylation of arenes.

Four new triphenylphosphine-derived cage ligands were modularly synthesized dynamic imine chemistry (DIC), and their absolute structures were characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction (SXRD), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and high resolution mass spectroscopy (HRMS). In contrast to small-molecule analogues, cage ligands demonstrate superior activity and selectivity. The Rh/Cage-L2 catalyst exhibits remarkable performance with an aldehyde selectivity of 89%, accompanied by a TOF value of 2665 h and an / ratio of 2.

A highly efficient rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrosilylation of aldehydes, ketones, and α,β-unsaturated ketones with dihydrosilanes is developed, that allows the rapid assembly of a variety of Si-stereogenic alkoxysilanes and silyl enol ethers in good yields and enantioselectivities under mild conditions. The applicability of this methodology was demonstrated by a series of stereospecific transformations to construct diverse Si-stereogenic derivatives.
