C-3 SUBSTITUTED CHIRAL SUCCINIMIDE AND METHOD OF PRODUCING THE SAME

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method of producing a C-3 substituted chiral succinimide which has mild conditions and simple operations, can achieve a good yield and efficiency, and exhibits better application effect.SOLUTION: A 3-alkenylene group substituted succinimide represented by the specified general formula (1) undergoes an asymmetric hydrogenation reaction catalyzed by an iridium chiral catalyst in a solvent under a hydrogen atmosphere, and is thereby converted to a C-3 substituted chiral succinimide represented by the specified general formula (2).
