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.

Chiral nanoporous metal-organic frameworks are constructed by using dicarboxyl-functionalized chiral Ni(salen) and Co(salen) ligands. The Co(salen)-based framework is shown to be an efficient and recyclable heterogeneous catalyst for hydrolytic kinetic resolution (HKR) of racemic epoxides with up to 99.5% ee. The MOF structure brings Co(salen) units into a highly dense arrangement and close proximity that enhances bimetallic cooperative interactions, leading to improved catalytic activity and enantioselectivity in HKR compared with its homogeneous analogues, especially at low catalyst/substrate ratios.
