Catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation of alpha-amino-beta-keto ester hydrochlorides using homogeneous chiral nickel-bisphosphine complexes through DKR

Homogeneous chiral nickel-bisphosphine complexes catalyze the asymmetric hydrogenation of alpha-amino-beta-keto ester hydrochlorides through dynamic kinetic resolution to efficiently afford anti-beta-hydroxy-alpha-amino esters with high diastereo-and enantioselectivities.
