Synthesis, structural analysis, and catalytic properties of tetrakis(binaphthyl or octahydrobinaphthyl phosphate) dirhodium(II,II) complexes

The X-ray structural analyses of homoleptic Rh(II) complexes made of enantiopure (R)-1,1′-binaphthyl and (R)-(5,5′,6,6′,7,7′, 8,8′-octahydro)binaphthyl phosphate ligands are for the first time presented. The possibility to introduce halogen atoms at the 3,3′-positions is also reported. The isolated dirhodium complexes were further tested as catalysts (1 mol %) in enantioselective cyclopropanations and Si-H insertion reactions, affording chiral cyclopropanes and silanes in good yield but moderate enantioselectivity (ee max 63%).

ASYMMETRIC-SYNTHESIS CATALYST BASED ON CHIRAL BROENSTED ACID AND METHOD OF ASYMMETRIC SYNTHESIS WITH THE CATALYST

A compound usable as an asymmetric synthesis catalyst which can be easily synthesized without using any metal such as a lanthanoid group element; a method of asymmetric synthesis with the compound; and a chiral compound obtained by the asymmetric synthesis method. A Broensted acid is used as a catalyst in asymmetric synthesis, the chiral Broensted acid being represented by formula (1) below or formula (3) below. The asymmetric synthesis method employs the catalyst. Asymmetric synthesis with the catalyst gives a chiral compound.
