The effect of ligands, temperature and the loading amount of ligands was studied. Under optimized conditions, enantioselective addition of diethylzinc with various aryl aldehydes and aliphatic aldehydes proceeded smoothly and afforded chiral secondary alcohols in up to 88% ee.展开更多

Moreover,they have been applied to the catalytic asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to benzaldehyde,which represents the first example that the inherently chiral calixarene can be used as the chiral ligands for the catalytic asymmetric synthesis.展开更多

Here, we describe an asymmetric carbonyl allylation of aldehydes with allyl ethers proceeding via allylic C-H borylation enabled by palladium and chiral phosphoric acid sequential catalysis, providing facile access to homoallylic vicinal anti-diols in high yields and with excellent stereoselectivity. This protocol enables the total synthesis of aigialomycin D to be finished within 7 steps.展开更多
