Acidic segment of an acyl-CoA : cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) inhibitor, R-106578 was synthesized by enantioselective hydrogenation of the Z-olefine (9-(Z)) using (R)-2, 2'-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1, 1'-binaphthyl(BINAP)-Ru(OAc)2 as a catalyst in methanol at 100°C, 5kgf/cm2 of H2 pressure. The requisite Z-olefine was prepared regioselectively via coumarin derivative (5).
