We prepared three novel chiral 1,1'-bi-2-naphthol-Ti coordination polymers with properly designed ligands and Ti(O^ipr)4 under mild conditions. The prepared polymers exhibited good activity and excellent enantioselectivity (over 99%ee) in catalyzing the asymmetric oxidation of sulfides. The bridge linker in the polymer and the reaction solvent noticeably affected the enantioseleetivity. The chiral coordination polymer was very stable and easy to separate from catalyzed reaction systems, with no significant loss of activity or enantioselectivity after reuse for at least ten times. These findings suggest a promising type of catalysts for synthesizing the widely used sulfoxides by asymmetrically oxidizing sulfides.展开更多
