Abstract

Abstract Image

A direct asymmetric iodination reaction of aldehydes with NIS was found to be catalyzed by the novel axially chiral bifunctional amino alcohol (S)-1d. This method represents the rare example of the catalytic and highly enantioselective synthesis of optically active α-iodoaldehydes.

      Chiral short-chain α-chloroaldehydes were prepared starting from enantiomerically pure amino acids in a three-step approach, thus providing a practical synthetic alternative for known organocatalytic α-chlorination procedures. The latter aldehydes proved ...
