Non-enzymatic dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) of secondary alcohols by enantioselective acylation using an isothiourea-derived HyperBTM catalyst and racemization of slowly reacting alcohol by Bäckvall’s ruthenium complex is reported. The DKR approach features high enantioselectivities (up to 99:1), employs easy-to-handle crystalline 4-nitrophenyl isobutyrate as the acylating reagent, and proceeds
据报道,使用异硫脲衍生的HyperBTM催化剂,通过对映选择性酰化作用,仲醇的非酶动力学动力学拆分(DKR),以及由Bäckvall钌络合物使缓慢反应的醇外消旋化。DKR方法具有高对映选择性(高达99:1),采用易于处理的结晶异丁酸4-硝基苯基酯作为酰化剂,可在室温和环境气氛下进行。通过DFT计算,详细阐述了以阳离子化的HyperBTM催化剂与醇芳基亚基的π电子之间的阳离子-π系统相互作用为特征的立体诱导模型。
