A first example of chiral dirhodium(II) complex-catalyzed enantioselective Mukaiyama aldol reactions is described. The aldol addition reaction of methyl acetate-derived trimethylsilylketene acetal with specific aldehydes such as benzyloxyacetaldehyde and electron-poor aromatic aldehydes is effectively catalyzed by dirhodium(II) tetrakis[N-benzene-fused phthaloyl-(S)-piperidinonate] (1a), providing silylated aldol adducts in up to 94% ee.

, (2008/06/13)
Disclosed is a process for preparing an optically active oxazolidinone derivative comprising allowing hydrazine to react on an optically active ester having a hydroxyl group at the 3-position which is represented by formula (II): wherein R1represents a lower alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, a phenyl group, a methoxymethyl group, a benzyloxymethyl group, a benzyloxycarbonylaminomethyl group which may have a substituent or substituents on the benzene ring thereof, an acylaminomethyl group having 3 to 10 carbon atoms, or an alkyloxycarbonylaminomethyl group having 3 to 6 carbon atoms; R2and R3, which may be the same or different, each represent a hydrogen atom, a lower alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, a phenyl group, an acetylaminomethyl group, a benzoylaminomethyl group, or a benzyl group; and * indicates an asymmetric carbon atom, and subjecting the resulting hydrazide to Curtius rearrangement.
C2-Symmetric Cu(II) Complexes as Chiral Lewis Acids. Catalytic, Enantioselective Cycloadditions of Silyl Ketenes

(matrix presented) C2-Symmetric bis(oxazoline)-Cu(II) complexes (4a-g) catalyze the enantioselective [2 + 2] cycloaddition between (silyl)ketenes and chelating carbonyl substrates. A range of substituted β-lactones can be produced in excellent yields and selectivities. It was also found that (trimethylsilyl)-ketene (1) may also undergo a highly selective hetero Diels-Alder reaction with β,γ-unsaturated α-keto esters.
