Oxidative and Enantioselective Cross‐Coupling of Aldehydes and Nitromethane Catalyzed by Diphenylprolinol Silyl Ether

Abstract

β-Substituierte γ-Nitroaldehyde als Synthesebausteine sind die Produkte der hoch enantioselektiven Kreuzkupplung von β-arylierten oder γ,δ-ungesättigten Aldehyden mit Nitromethan unter Zusatz von 2,3-Dichlor-5,6-dicyanchinon (DDQ) als Oxidationsmittel und einem Diphenylprolinolsilylether als Katalysator (siehe Schema; TMS=Trimethylsilyl).
