Abstract
Here we report a comprehensive investigation of the asymmetric addition of diarylphosphorus oxides to a wide range of α,β-unsaturated pyridines and other N-heterocyclic substrates, catalyzed by commercial chiral phosphoric acid, affording the corresponding products in up to 99% yield and 96% ee. The experimental studies and density functional theory calculation suggest the possible mechanism and the role of chiral phosphoric acid in the control of enantioselectivity.
期刊介绍:
Organic Letters invites original reports of fundamental research in all branches of the theory and practice of organic, physical organic, organometallic,medicinal, and bioorganic chemistry. Organic Letters provides rapid disclosure of the key elements of significant studies that are of interest to a large portion of the organic community. In selecting manuscripts for publication, the Editors place emphasis on the originality, quality and wide interest of the work. Authors should provide enough background information to place the new disclosure in context and to justify the rapid publication format. Back-to-back Letters will be considered. Full details should be reserved for an Article, which should appear in due course.
