Aminoacetals, easily prepared by condensation of aromatic aldehydes, secondary amines and alcohols, are reductively coupled by using lowvalenttitanium iodide species to afford the corresponding coupling products, vicinal tertiary diamines, in good to high yields under mild reaction conditions.
Enantioselective nucleophilic opening reactions of cyclohexene oxide and 3-phenyloxetane were achieved by the combination of an external chiral ligand and organolithiums in the presence of boron trifluoride to give the corresponding alcohols in up to 47% ee. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
Novel cationic titanium(IV) Lewis acids and their use in asymmetric aldol reactions
Novel cationic Lewis acids were generated by the addition of silver hexafluoroantimonate to titanium complexes 7 (TiCl4 .(R,R)-1,2-diphenylethane-1,2-diol dialkyl ether) or 8 (TiCl3(OR).(R,R)-1,2-diphenylethane-1,2-diol dialkyl ether) at -20 degrees C. Interestingly, the titanium complexes 7 or 8 could be isolated and the structures of 7c (TiCl4 .(R,R)-1,2-diphenylethane-1,2-diol di-n-propyl ether) and 8a (TiCl3(O-i-Pr).(R,R)-1,2-diphenylethane-1,2-diol dimethyl ether) were determined by X-ray analysis. Asymmetric aldol reaction using the cationic Lewis acids is also described. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
