Abstract

Platinum nanoparticles supported on periodic mesoporous resols by simple impregnation serve as effective, robust and remarkably reusable catalysts after chirally modified with cinchonidine for the asymmetric hydrogenation of ethyl pyruvate, affording up to 62% enantiomeric excess (ee) and a constant activity after 25th re-use. They can also catalyze the reaction in an environmentally benign manner by using water as a solvent.
