Asymmetric catalysis is the preferred method for the synthesis of pure chiral molecules in the fine chemical industry. Cellulose has long been sought as a support in enantioselective catalysis. Dialdehyde cellulose (DAC) is produced by the selective oxidation of cellulose and is used to bind 5,5′-diamino Binap by forming a Schiff base. Here, we report the synthesis of modified cellulose-supported Rh as a novel biomass-supported catalyst and the characterization of its morphology, composition, and thermal stability. DAC-BINAP-Rh was a very effective catalyst in the asymmetric hydrogenation of enamides and could be easily recycled. This work provides a novel supported catalyst that broadens the applications of cellulose in asymmetric catalysis.Keywords:asymmetric hydrogenation;cellulose;BINAP;heterogeneous catalysis

2,2′-Bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1′-binaphthyl (BINAP) is a widely used chiral phosphine ligand, and the sulfonated BINAP is one of the important water-soluble BINAP derivatives. In this article, we report an improved oleum sulfonation method for the synthesis of the high-purity 5,5′-disulfonato-( S )-BINAP ligand with an industrially acceptable high yield. By optimizing the sulfonation conditions and improving the workup process, the yield of 5,5′-disulfonated products was enhanced to 73 %. Furthermore, an acetonitrile extraction protocol was developed for the purification of sulfonated products by efficiently removing phosphine oxides, by which the content of phosphine oxide can be controlled below 3 %. The structure of 5,5′-disulfonato-( S )-BINAP was characterized with the elemental analysis, FT-IR, 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR, 31 P NMR, 1 H- 1 H COSY, 1 H- 13 C HSQC, 1 H- 13 C HMBC, and HR-MS, which unambiguously confirmed that the sulfo groups are introduced at the 5,5′-position of the binaphthyl ring skeleton in ( S )-BINAP. The prepared high-purity 5,5′-disulfonato-( S )-BINAP was evaluated in the Ru-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of β -keto esters, which exhibited high catalytic activity, enantioselectivity and excellent catalytic stability.
