Enantioselective ethylation of aldehydes with 1,3-N-donor ligands derived from (+)-camphoric acid
摘要:
Derivatives of (+)-camphoric acid were prepared by a short and simple synthetic sequence and proved to be excellent ligands for the enantioselective ethylation of benzaldellyde with diethylzinc, with ees of up to 96% being obtained The most efficient ligand was tested with several aromatic alclehydes and ees of up to 99% were observed Structural features of the ligands are determinant for achieving high enantioselectivities.
