Chiral carbonyl iron systems have seldom been used in asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of aromatic ketones. In this study, new chiral iron catalytic systems were synthesized in situ from different carbonyl iron complexes with chiral diaminodiphosphine ligands, respectively. These catalytic systems have been used for the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of various aromatic ketones under mild conditions. The results indicated that trinuclear iron complexes were the best systems for the reactions. When the [Et3NH]+[HFe3(CO)11]- as catalyst was used for asymmetric reduction of 1,1-diphenylacetone, high enantioselectivity up to 98% was achieved. Monitoring the reaction in situ by infrared spectroscopy, it could be conjectured that the carbonyl iron cluster Fe3(CO)12 kept its trinuclear skeleton unchanged during the catalytic reaction.

Key words: carbonyl iron, chiral diaminodiphosphine ligand, aromatic ketone, asymmetric transfer hydrogenation
