bisformamides have been shown to catalyze the asymmetric one-pot, three-component Streckerreaction, which produced the α-amino nitriles in excellent yields (up to 99%) with good enantioselectivities (up to 86% ee). Optically pure products could be obtained after a single recrystallization. A possible transition state (TS1) has been proposed to explain the origin of asymmetric inductivity and reactivity according
C 2对称的手性双甲酰胺已显示出催化不对称的一锅,三组分Strecker反应,该反应以优异的对映体选择性(高达86%ee)以优异的收率(高达99%)产生了α-氨基腈。在单次重结晶后可获得光学纯的产物。根据在B3LYP / 6-31G(d)水平下优化的催化剂2a的几何形状和产物4a的绝对构型,已经提出了一种可能的过渡态(TS 1)来解释不对称感应性和反应性的起源。
Enantioselective Cyanosilylation of Ketones Catalyzed by a Nitrogen-Containing Bifunctional Catalyst
An efficient and optically active, bifunctional tetraaza ligand (2S)-N-(1R,2R)-2-[(S)-pyrrolidine-2-carboxamido]-1,2-diphenylethyl}pyrrolidine-2-carboxamide has been developed for the addition of trimethylsilyl cyanide (TMSCN) to ketones. The bifunctionalcatalyst system based on a monometallic titanium complex was found to be a highly enantioselectivecatalyst to provide O-TMS cyanohydrins with up
