Abstract | A highly enantioselective synthesis of sitagliptin, a potent DPP-4 inhibitor, is reported. Explicitly identified chiral FerroLANE ligands in the presence of rhodium catalyze the asymmetric hydrogenation of an enamine to yield sitagliptin with excellent enantioselectivity (98% ee). The process was scaled up to 5 g and the final product was isolated as a phosphate salt with >99% ee. |
