Kinetic resolution of racemic epoxides using a chiral diamine catalyst
摘要:
The kinetic resolution of a variety of racemic epoxides has been performed using a chiral bicyclic diamine ligand. Using 5 mol% of catalyst very high selectivity could be achieved; both epoxide and the corresponding allylic alcohol could be obtained in up to 99% ee. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
