of organocatalysts for the asymmetric direct aldolreactions of ketones with α-keto acids were designed on the basis of molecular recognition and prepared from proline and aminopyridines. The organic molecule 8e, derived from proline and 6-methyl-2-amino pyridine, was the best catalyst, affording excellent enantioselectivities (up to 98% ee) for the direct aldolreactions of acetone or 2-butanone with

A type of C2-symmetrical bisprolinamide has been developed for the asymmetricaldolreaction between acetone and α-ketoesters, which furnishes the chiral tertiary alcohols in high yields (up to 99 %) with high enantioselectivities (up to 94 % ee). Aliphatic, heteroaromatic and aromatic α-ketoesters including those with electron-donating or electron-withdrawing group substituents were found to be

Various organocatalysts have been designed based on molecular recognition to catalyze the asymmetric direct aldol reaction of ketones with aryl and alkyl alpha-keto acids, affording beta-hydroxyl carboxylic acids with a tertiary stereogenic center with excellent enantioselectivities of up to 98% ee. A linear effect was observed for the reaction, demonstrating a single molecule of the catalyst involved in the catalysis.
