Using chiral phosphoramide ligand 2d‐Zn (II) complex derived from (1R,2R)‐1,2‐diphenylethylenediamine as the catalyst, we have developed efficient catalytic asymmetric 1,2‐addition/lactonization tandem reactions of diverse organozinc reagents with varied methyl 2‐formylbenzoates for the construction of optically enriched 3‐aryl or alkyl substituted phthalides, which are significant building blocks
Diastereomeric Aziridine Carbinol Catalyzed Enantioselective Arylation Reaction: Toward the Asymmetric Synthesis of Both Enantiomers of Chiral 3-Aryl Phthalide
The diastereomeric aziridine carbinols are applied, respectively, as efficient chiral ligand in the catalysis of asymmetric arylation and sequential arylation-lactonization cascade. The two diastereomers, which are facilely synthesized from the same chiral source, function as pseudo enantiomers in arylation of aromatic aldehydes providing the different enantiomers of the diarylmethanols with almost the same excellent enantioselectivities. The arylation method is also carried out in tandem with lactonization process to afford a concise synthetic approach to both enantiomers of optically active 3-aryl phthalide.
