(21) In order to ascertain the generality of the selectivity switch
observed in Table 1, the following previosly reported (ref 23) PA-
catalyzed cyclic aminal-forming reaction was performed with (S)-TRIP
and (S)-9h. The observed selectivity reversal may be explained by a
fundamentally different steric environment created by 9l, or attractive
interactions between the substrate and catalyst that override the
selectivity based purely on sterics. The absolute stereochemistry of 11
was assigned on the basis of comparison of HPLC data with those
reported in the literature (ref 24).

(22) Given the anion-binding affinity of the C5−H bond of 1,4-
disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles (ref 18), one possibility may be that the
triazole substituents interact with the anionic phosphate moiety,
affecting the active conformation of the catalyst in a way that is not
possible with 10a and 10b, which lack this feature.
