Evaluation of the enantioselectivity of new chiral ligands based on imidazolidin-4-one derivatives

Zusammenfassung:The new chiral ligands based on derivatives of imidazolidin-4-one were synthesised and characterised. The catalytic activity and enantioselectivity of their corresponding copper(II) complexes were studied in asymmetric Henry reactions. It was found that the enantioselectivity of these catalysts is overall very high and depends on the relative configuration of the ligand used; configuration of ligand affords the nitroaldols with major enantiomer (up to 97% ee), whereas the application of ligands with -configuration led to nitroaldols with major -enantiomer (up to 96% ee). The "proline-type" ligand was also tested in asymmetric aldol reactions. Under the optimised reaction conditions, aldol products with enantioselectivities of up to 91% ee were obtained.
