چکیده

A family of chiral organometallic triangles based on cis-Pt(PEt3)2 metallocorners and enantiopure atropisomeric bis(alkynyl) bridging ligands (L1-4) has been synthesized and characterized by 1H, 13C{1H}, and 31P{1H} NMR, UV-vis, and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopies, FAB and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, and microanalysis. Metallocycle 4 which contains three 1,1'-bi-2-naphthol functionalities in combination with Ti(iOPr)4 has been shown to be an excellent catalyst for highly enantioselective additions of diethylzinc to aromatic aldehydes to afford chiral secondary alcohols. This research illustrates the potential of generating novel functional materials on the basis of supramolecular chemistry.

Stereoselective Synthesis of α-Arylalkylamines by Glycosylation-induced Asymmetric Addition of Organometallic Compounds to Imines

Arylalkylamines are of interest as building blocks for the synthesis of biologically active compounds and as chiral ligands or chiral auxiliaries in stereoselective syntheses [1]. Their stereoselective synthesis has been achieved by enantioselective reduction of ketimines using chiral reagents [2], as for example Corey’s oxaborolidines [3], or proline-derived triacyloxyborohydrides [4]. Particu...

Separation of Enantiomers by Chromatography as a Vehicle for Chiral Catalysis. Abridged Review*

Chiral, or asymmetric catalysis is the most efficient approach to chiral molecules in the enantiomerically enriched form. Organocatalysis and organometallic catalysis are nowadays the methods of choice in this field. In the first case enantiomerically pure chiral organic molecules of different symmetry classes exhibit catalytic effect, in the second one chiral organic molecule acts as the ligan...

Enantio-Relay Catalysis Constructs Chiral Biaryl Alcohols over Cascade Suzuki Cross-Coupling-Asymmetric Transfer Hydrogenation

The construction of chiral biaryl alcohols using enantio-relay catalysis is a particularly attractive synthetic method in organic synthesis. However, overcoming the intrinsic incompatibility of distinct organometallic complexes and the reaction conditions used are significant challenges in asymmetric catalysis. To overcome these barriers, we have taken advantage of an enantio-relay catalysis st...

Catalytic asymmetric carbon-carbon bond formation via allylic alkylations with organolithium compounds.

Carbon-carbon bond formation is the basis for the biogenesis of nature's essential molecules. Consequently, it lies at the heart of the chemical sciences. Chiral catalysts have been developed for asymmetric C-C bond formation to yield single enantiomers from several organometallic reagents. Remarkably, for extremely reactive organolithium compounds, which are among the most broadly used reagent...
