The transfer hydrogenation reaction by the combined use of CPA and Hantzsch ester required use of N‐aryl ketimines as substrates due to the catalyst deactivation through salt formation with the highly basic amine product. List reported a transfer hydrogenation of N‐alkyl‐substituted ketimine using more acidic chiral DSI 9d, which was derived from BINOL in the presence of Boc2O to furnish Boc‐protected N‐alkyl amine. A range of ketimines bearing methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, benzyl, allyl, and other alkyl moieties participated in the transfer hydrogenation successfully to furnish corresponding amines with 81–97% ee (Scheme 2.67a) [138]. Subjecting N‐H ketimines with the combination of DSI 9e and Hantzsch ester resulted in the reductive condensation reaction of the N‐H ketimines to afford C2‐symmetric secondary amines (Scheme 2.67b) [139]. List subsequently employed N‐H ketimine HCl salt as the substrate and achieved an enantioselective reduction efficiently to furnish crystalline primary amines using DSI 9f (Scheme 2.67c). A kinetic study suggested the bifunctional nature of DSI [140].

In addition to Hantzsch ester, benzothiazoline was also found to function as a hydrogen donor in combination with CPA because benzothiazoline releases dihydrogen to generate benzothiazole (Figure 2.14) [141]. A range of ketimines derived from acetophenones [142], propiophenones [143], α‐imino esters [144], trifluoromethylated ketimines [145], difluoromethylated ketimines [146], alkynylated ketimines [147], and 1,4‐benzodiazepine [148] successfully participated in the transfer hydrogenation (Figure 2.15). The reductive amination also proceeded efficiently [149]. Interestingly, use of 2‐aryl‐2‐deuterated benzothiazoline resulted in the formation of α‐deuterated amines with high enantioselectivity [150]. Benzothiazoline sometimes afforded higher enantioselectivity in the transfer hydrogenation of ketimines in combination with CPA in comparison with Hantzsch ester as a hydrogen donor. Theoretical study by Yamanaka elucidated the transition state, wherein hydrogen bond between N‐H and phosphoryl oxygen is critical [151]. Higher selectivity of benzothiazoline may be ascribed to the position of the transferred hydrogen. Hydrogen at the α‐position of nitrogen of benzothiazoline was transferred, whereas γ‐hydrogen was transferred in the case of Hantzsch ester (Figure 2.16).

Furthermore, 2‐arylindoline also functioned as a hydrogen donor for the transfer hydrogenation of ketimines (Scheme 2.68a) [152]. (R)‐2‐Arylindole reacted much faster than its (S)‐isomer in combination with (R)‐BINOL‐derived phosphoric acid. Taking advantage of the difference in the reactivity, Akiyama developed oxidative kinetic resolution of 2‐substituted indoline. On treatment of 2‐substituted indoline with 0.6 equivalent of ketimine in the presence of CPA 6e, (R)‐indoline underwent transfer hydrogenation with N‐3,4,5‐(MeO)3C6H2‐substituted ketimine much faster than (S)‐indoline, and (S)‐indoline was recovered in approximately 50% chemical yields with excellent enantioselectivity (Scheme 2.68b) [153]. In particular, 2‐arylindolines were obtained with >99% ee.

Subsequently, Akiyama reported a self‐redox strategy for the oxidative kinetic resolution of indolines to furnish 2‐aryl indolines with 87–99% ee using salicyl aldehyde derivative as the preresolving reagent in place of ketimine catalyzed by CPA 6t, bearing bulky 9‐anthryl‐2,6‐diisopropylphenyl group at 3,3′‐positions. Iminium ion intermediate 31, which was formed by the condensation of indoline with salicyl aldehyde derivative, was hydrogenated from the 2‐aryl indoline (Scheme 2.68c) [154].
