Notably, distinct reactivities of Z and E enamides were reported for Ru/binap-catalyzed (binap=2,2′-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)-1, 1′-binaphthyl) asymmetric hydrogenation of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline derived enamides: whereas Z enamides were hydrogenated with excellent ee values, the corresponding E enamides showed no reactivity under the same hydrogenation conditions; see: a) R.
