Chemoselectivity and Enantioselectivity in the Conjugate Reduction of Cinnamate esters and a Tandem Conjugate-Reduction-Ester Hydrogenation using Manganese Catalysts (dataset)
Abstract
The dataset contains the NMR data for the catalysis products obtained after reduction with a Mn complex. Chemoselective hydrogenation of the C=C bonds of t-butyl cinnamate esters can be realised using Mn/phosphino-ferrocenyl-amino-methyl-pyridine catalysts. Moderately enantioselective conjugate reduction of a trisubstituted cinnamate ester is possible. Alternatively, tandem conjugate reduction-ester hydrogenation with very high sequence selectivity (
