Eu(iii) dithiocarbamate complex and N-p-tolylsulfonylphenylalanine as a novel chiral catalyst for the asymmetric synthesis of cyanohydrins

Abstract

The use of a new chiral lanthanide complex derived from a europium dithiocarbamate complex and a N-tosylated amino acid for the asymmetric synthesis of cyanohydrins is described. In some cases, high enantioselectivities were observed.
