A new type of DNA metal complex hybrid catalyst, which is based on single‐stranded DNA oligonucleotides, is described. It was shown that oligonucleotides as short as 14 nucleotides that fold into hairpin structures are suitable as nucleic acid components for DNA hybrid catalysts. With these catalysts, excellent enantioinduction in asymmetric Diels–Alder reactions with selectivity values as high as
描述了一种新型的基于单链DNA寡核苷酸的DNA金属络合物杂化催化剂。已显示折叠成发夹结构的短至14个核苷酸的寡核苷酸适合作为DNA杂化催化剂的核酸组分。使用这些催化剂,可以在不对称Diels–Alder反应中实现出色的对映体诱导,其选择性值高达96%对映体过量(ee)。分子动力学模拟表明,相当灵活的环与刚性茎区域相结合,为DNA支架提供了这些高选择性值。
