Therefore, a series of methyl alkyl or alkyl/aryl ketones have been reduced by using Ru(II), Rh(I) and Ir(III) catalysts based on C (2)-symmetric chiral ferrocenyl phosphinite ligands. The corresponding optically active secondary alcohols were obtained in excellent conversions and moderate-to-good enantioselectivities. The best results were obtained with an iridium catalyst, giving up to 98% conversion and 80% ee.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccess[No Keyword]Article424365372WOS:0003994569000112-s2.0-8501648205910.1007/s11243-017-0140-1Q2Q3
