Abstract
Herein, we disclose a facile synthetic strategy to access an important class of drug molecules that contain chiral 1,2-amino alcohol functionality utilizing highly effective ruthenium-catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of unprotected α-ketoamines. Recently, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused a crisis of shortage of many important drugs, especially norepinephrine and epinephrine, for the treatment of anaphylaxis and hypotension because of the increased demand. Unfortunately, the existing technologies are not fulfilling the worldwide requirement due to the existing lengthy synthetic protocols that require additional protection and deprotection steps. We identified a facile synthetic protocol via a highly enantioselective one-step process for epinephrine and a two-step process for norepinephrine starting from unprotected α-ketoamines 1b and 1a, respectively. This newly developed enantioselective ruthenium-catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation was extended to the synthesis of many 1,2-amino alcohol-containing drug molecules such as phenylephrine, denopamine, norbudrine, and levisoprenaline, with enantioselectivities of >99% ee and high isolated yields.

Abstract
Mesoporous silica nanomaterials provide an extraordinary advantage for making
new and superior heterogeneous catalysts because of their surface silanol groups. The functionalized
mesoporous SBA-15, such as acidic, basic, BrÖnsted, lewis acid, and chiral catalysts,
are used for a wide range of organic syntheses. The importance of the chiral ligands,
which were immobilized on the SBA-15, was mentioned in this review to achieve chiral
products as valuable target molecules. Herein, their synthesis and application in different organic
transformations are reviewed from 2016 till date 2020.
