Novel axially chiral Rh N-heterocyclic carbene complexes were prepared from axially dissymmetric 1,1?-binaphthalenyl-2,2?-diamine and applied in the Rh-catalyzed enantioselective hydrosilylation of methyl ketones. The enantioselective direct aldol reaction, organocatalyzed by recoverable BINAM- prolinamide derivatives can be highly accelerated by a catalytic amount of a carboxylic acid without a detrimental of the obtained enantioselectivities.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
Applications
Novel axially chiral Rh N-heterocyclic carbene complexes were prepared from axially dissymmetric 1,1′-binaphthalenyl-2,2′-diamine and applied in the Rh-catalyzed enantioselective hydrosilylation of methyl ketones. The enantioselective direct aldol reaction, organocatalyzed by recoverable BINAM- prolinamide derivatives can be highly accelerated by a catalytic amount of a carboxylic acid without a detrimental of the obtained enantioselectivities.
