Herein we report an efficient strategy for preparing isotactic polyesters and chiral epoxides via enantioselective resolution copolymerization of racemic terminal epoxides with anhydrides, mediated by enantiopure bimetallic complexes in conjunction with a nucleophilic cocatalyst. The chirality of both the axial linker and the diamine backbones of the ligand are responsible for the chiral induction of this kinetic resolution copolymerization process. The catalyst systems exhibit exceptional levels of enantioselectivity with a kinetic resolution coefficient exceeding 300 for various racemic epoxides, affording highly isotactic copolymers (selectivity factors of more than 300) with a completely alternating structure and low polydispersity index. Most of the produced isotactic polyesters are typical semicrystalline materials with melting temperatures in the range from 77 to 160 °C.

The activation of inactive Jacobsen's chiral salen Co(ii) (salen = N,N′-bis(3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylidene)-1,2-cyclohexanediamine) compound is attained by dinuclear chiral salen Co(iii)-OTf complex formation with yttrium triflate. The yttrium metal not only displays a promoting effect on electron transfer, but also assists in forming two stereocentres of a Lewis acid complex with Co(iii)-OTf. We found that the binuclear Co-complex significantly enhanced reactivity and enantioselectivity in the hydrolytic kinetic resolution of terminal epoxides compared to its analogous monomer and kinetic data are also consistent with these results.

The present invention relates to new chiral salen catalysts and the preparation method of chiral compounds from racemic epoxides using the same. More specifically, it relates to new chiral salen catalysts that have high catalytic activity due to new molecular structures and have no or little racemization of the generated target chiral compounds even after the reaction is completed and can be also reused without catalyst regeneration treatment, and its economical preparation method to mass manufacture chiral compounds of high optical purity, which can be used as raw materials for chiral food additives, chiral drugs, or chiral crop protection agents, etc., using the new chiral salen catalysts.
