The enantiomeric excesses, which are highly dependent on the molecular structure of catalysts as well as experimental conditions, have reached over 98%.展开更多
Tetrahydrobenzo[5]helicenediol（THB-[5]HDIOL） derivatives as additives for the efficient prolinecatalyzed asymmetric List-Lerner-Barbas（LLB） aldol reactions of bulky aldehyde substrates was described.

It was found that with dibromo-substituted helical diols P-4 a/M-4 a as additives, the prolinecatalyzed LLB aldol reaction of 9-anthraldehyde and acetone gave the product in 83% yield and 99% ee.Transition state models revealed an edge-to-face p-p stacking between the anthracenyl group in TS（R）and the phenyl group of the additive, which might result in the high enantioselectivity.展开更多

A highly stereoselective asymmetric cascade cyclization reaction between o-hydroxycinnamaldehydes and diphenylphosphine oxide has been achieved with 84%-99% ee and 7：1-20：1 dr under the catalysis of L-diarylprolinol...A highly stereoselective asymmetric cascade cyclization reaction between o-hydroxycinnamaldehydes and diphenylphosphine oxide has been achieved with 84%-99% ee and 7：1-20：1 dr under the catalysis of L-diarylprolinol silyl ether. This reaction provides a facile access to highly enantioenriched 4- diphenylphosphinyl chroman-2-ols. It also represents a novel organocatalytic asymmetric phospha- Michael addition of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes with pentavalent P-nucleophiles.展开更多
