The asymmetric catalytic cyclization of the simple 2′-hydroxychalcone (1) to flavanone (2), a model for the chalcone isomerase reaction, has been realized as a catalytic asymmetric ion-pairing process with chiral quaternary ammonium salts (e.g., 9-anthracenylmethlycinchoninium chloride; 9-Am-CN-Cl) and NaH as small-molecule co-catalyst. In toluene/CHCl3 solution, the process reaches an intrinsic enantioselectivity
frontier in the development of chiral stationary phases for chromatographic enantioseparation involves homochiral metal–organic frameworks (MOFs). Using enantiopure (R)-2,2′-dihydroxy-1,1′-binaphthalene-6,6′-dicarboxylic acid as a starting material, we prepared three homochiral MOFs that were further used as chiral stationary phases for high-performanceliquidchromatography to separate the enantiomers

developed and shown to catalyze the direct and highly enantioselective cyclization of 2′-hydroxychalcones in imitation of the natural process of chalcone cyclization. The straightforward synthetic process occurs under mild reaction conditions, tolerates moisture and air, and gives an enantiomeric excess up to 99%. This approach provides a facile and efficient access to chiral flavanones.
