Surface-enhanced stereoselectivity in Mukaiyama aldol reactions catalyzed by clay-supported bis(oxazoline)–copper complexes

Abstract

Surface effects on a laponite-exchanged bis(oxazoline)–copper complex modify the stereochemical course of the Mukaiyama aldol reaction between 2-(trimethylsilyloxy)furan and α-ketoesters, leading up to 90% ee (dr 86 : 14) becoming the best overall result obtained for this reaction and significantly improving the homogeneous process.
