The sequential acylative kinetic resolution (KR) of C2-symmetric (±)-1,2-syn and (±)-1,3-anti-diols using a packed bed microreactor loaded with the polystyrene-supported isothiourea, HyperBTM, is demonstrated in flow. The sequential KRs of C2-symmetric (±)-1,2-syn and (±)-1,3-anti-diols exploits Horeau amplification, with each composed of two successive KR processes, with each substrate class significantly differing in the relative rate constants for each KR process. Optimisation of the continuous flow set-up for both C2-symmetric (±)-1,2-syn and (±)-1,3-anti-diol substrate classes allowed isolation of reaction products in both high enantiopurity and yield.

The hydrogenation of alkenes is one of the most impactful reactions catalyzed by homogeneous transition metal complexes finding application in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and commodity chemical industries. For decades, catalyst technology has relied on precious metal catalysts supported by strong field ligands to enable highly predictable two-electron redox chemistry that constitutes key bond breaking and forming steps during turnover. Alternative catalysts based on earth abundant transition metals such as iron and cobalt not only offer potential environmental and economic advantages but also provide an opportunity to explore catalysis in a new chemical space.

A series of C(1)-symmetrical 1,3-diphosphite ligands with a furanoside backbone have been applied in the Pd-catalysed asymmetric allylic alkylation of mono- and disubstituted linear substrates. These diphosphite ligands were designed by selective modification of the successful diphosphite ligand L1a with the 6-deoxy-1,2-O-isopropylidene-glucofuranose backbone in order to study the effect of the ligand structure on the catalytic performance. The effect of the solvent, the substrate/metal ratio and ligand/metal ratio were also investigated.

A key feature of tris(oxazolinyl)ethane ("trisox") ligands, which have shown broad scope in asymmetric catalysis, is the orientation and steric demand of their oxazoline substituents. This, along with the modularity of their synthesis determines their coordination chemistry. The possibility to combine oxazolines, in which the stereogenic centers adjacent to the N-donor atoms have different absolute configuration, whilst retaining their ability to coordinate as tripodal ligands, has been demonstrated by the synthesis of the enantiomerically pure C3-symmetric iPr-trisox(S,S,S) and C1-symmetric iPr-trisox(S,S,R) and their reaction with [Mo(CO)3(NCMe)3] yielding [Mo{iPr-trisox(S,S,S)}(CO)3] (1 a) and [Mo{iPr-trisox(S,S,R)}(CO)3] (1 b), respectively.
