(5S)-5-benzyl-2,2,3-trimethylimidazoiidin-4-one as a highly effective chiral auxiliary for asymmetric reduction of α-oxo amides

Abstract

Reduction of the α-oxo amide derived from phenylglyoxylic acid, containing (5S)-5-benzyl-2,2,3-trimethylimidazolidin-4-one as a chiral auxiliary, with NaBH4 or via fluoride ion-induced hydrosilylation with HSiMe2Ph was found to proceed with 90–100% diastereoselectivity.
