Reaction of diol 4 with Ti(O i-Pr)4 followed by SiCl4 results in formation of the Ti (IV) complex 5 which is an exceptionally effective catalyst for enantioselective Diels-Alder reactions. The origin of the high enantioselectivities

The synthesis of a chiral 2,2′-bipyridine-α,α′-1-adamantyl-diol ligand was achieved starting from commercially available materials. The bulky ligand was synthesized in three steps in 40% overall yield with stereoselectivities of 98% de and >99.5% ee for the S,S enantiomer. The absolute configuration of and structural insights into a heptacoordinated 2,2′-bipyridine-α,α′-1-Ad-diol/FeII chiral complex were obtained from single-crystal diffraction analyses. The newly synthesized ligand was used in iron-catalyzed asymmetric Mukaiyama aldol, thia-Michael, and Diels-Alder reactions.
