The method utilized cationic iridium/bisphosphine-catalyzed asymmetric intramolecular carbonyl hydroacylation of 2-keto benzaldehydes to furnish the corresponding optically active phthalide products in good to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 98% ee). The mechanistic studies using a deuterium-labelled substrate suggested that the reaction involved an intramolecular carbonyl insertion mechanism to iridium hydride intermediate. In addition, we investigated the kinetic isotope effect (KIE) of intramolecular hydroacylation with deuterated substrate and determined that the C-H activation step is not included in the turnover-limiting step.Wiley-BlackwellJournal Articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/2115/81935https://eprints.lib.hokudai.ac.jp/dspace/bitstream/2115/81935/1/200322_communication%20asian%20journal.pdf1861-4728Chemistry-an asian journal1512185818622020-06-23enginfo:doi/10.1002/asia.202000386This is the peer reviewed version of the following article: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/asia.202000386, which has been published in final form at 10.1002/asia.202000386.
