Page/Page column 4, (2009/04/24)
The invention relates to a pyridine oxide compound represented by formula (I), an optically active compound thereof, a salt thereof and a hydrate thereof, and, in the presence of the compound as a catalyst, performing 1) a method for producing an ester compound or an amide compound from a carboxylic acid equivalent and an alcohol or an amine, 2) an asymmetric esterification reaction or 3) an asymmetric amidation reaction. In formula (I), each R1 may be the same as the other R1 or different and each R1 represents an alkyl group, an aromatic group, a heterocyclic group, a carboxyl group, an ester group, a cyano group, a halogen atom, an oxygen atom, a sulfur atom or a nitrogen atom; each R2 may be the same as the other R2 or different and each R2 represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, an aromatic group, a heterocyclic group, a carboxyl group, an ester group, a cyano group, a halogen atom, an oxygen atom or the like, and R3 and R4 may be the same or different and R3 and R4 each represent a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, an aromatic group, a heterocyclic group, a carboxyl group, an ester group, a cyano group, a halogen atom, an oxygen atom or the like.
