High turnover: An highly efficient catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation of δ-aryl-δ-ketoesters has been realized by using the chiral spiroiridium catalyst (R)-1. Chiral 1,5-diol products are obtained with excellent enantioselectivity and turnover numbers (TONs) as high as 100,000. TOF = turnover frequency.
