The chiral ionic liquid CILTPT-MS [CH3(OCH2CH2)16CD]+[CH3SO3]− (CD = cinchonidine) is found to exhibit cloud point character. Due to this cloud point character, a CILTPT-MS-stabilized chiral nano-Pt catalyst is prepared and utilized to realize transfer in a H2O–1-pentanol biphasic system by simply changing the temperature. Therefore, a fluorine-free, thermoregulated phase-transfer catalysis system is developed and applied to the asymmetric hydrogenation of α-ketoesters with enantiomeric excess of >99% and excellent conversion. In addition, the chiral nano-Pt catalyst can be easily separated and reused efficiently.
