摘要
(S)-(1-Benzylpyrrolidin-2-yl)diphenylmethanol and cinchonine were evaluated as promotors in the asymmetric additions of phenylacetylene to ketones, in order to prepare chiral propargylic alcohols. Good yields (up to 89%) and moderate enantioselectivities (up to 77.9% ee) were achieved. Addition of Ti(OPr-i)4 can significantly improve the enantioselectivity of the reaction.
