From imines to amines through catalysis by Ir I complexes of a new type of P,N ligand (see scheme): This reaction affords the corresponding optically active amines with up to 98 % ee and has also been used with perfect stereoselectivity in the asymmetric synthesis of sertraline ( 1 ), an important antidepressant chiral drug.
