Highly Stereoselective Alkylation Through Asymmetric Intramolecular Autoactivation; Synthesis and Use of a New Chiral Ligand.
2010
Abstract The ethylation of 2-( N , N -dimethylaminomethyl)ferrocenylcarboxaldehyde 1 without a catalyst is stereospecific and occurs with high rates, yields and diastereoselectivities through an intramolecular asymmetric autoactivation. This reaction allowed the synthesis of the enantiopure (+)-( S ,1 S )-{2-( N , N -dimethyl-aminomethyl)ferrocenyl}-1-propanol 2 by applying this result to the enantiomerically pure aldehyde 1 . This new chiral auxiliary acted as a catalyst during the ethylation of benzaldehyde with diethylzinc.
