Investigation of the diastereoselective Mannich reaction using imidazolidin-2-thione as a chiral auxiliary
摘要:
Titanium mediated asymmetric Mannich reactions using imidazolidin-2-thione as a chiral auxiliary proceeded in good yields and with high diastereoselectivity to afford the anti-products in the presence of PPh3 additive. A non-chelated transition state with the PPh3-bound titanium enolate was proposed to explain the stereochemistry of the product. Alcoholysis of the adducts with methanol cleaved the imidazolidin-2-thione auxiliary to give the methyl esters in good yields and with excellent ee values. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
