By heating the cobalt chloride hexahydrate (CoCl2·6H2O) with the R form of the organic amine α-methylbenzylamine (C8H11N) under hydro(solvo)thermal conditions, we have successfully generated the corresponding non-centrosymmetric homochiral hybrid tris (α-methylbenzylammonium tetrachloridocobaltate chloride [R-(C8H12N)3][CoCl4]Cl abbreviated R(MBA)Co. We present the growth conditions together with a characterization of the single crystals by means of X-ray single-crystal diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared, TG/TDA thermal decomposition and catalytic properties. This inorganic–organic hybrid compound crystallizes in the chiral space group P21 and exhibits a supramolecular-layered organization wherein a double layer of (R)-methylbenzylammonium cations and the uncoordinated chloride anions are sandwiched between anionic layers, formed by isolated tetrachloridocobaltate tetrahedra. The crystal packing is governed by a three-dimensional network of N/C–H?Cl hydrogen bonds between the inorganic and organic moieties and C–H···π interactions between the aromatic rings of the organic moieties themselves. Thermal analysis discloses a phase transition at the temperature 130 °C. The Co complex was also employed as suitable catalyst activating the acetal formation reaction of aldehydes using MeOH as solvent and as the unique source of acetalization.

A new highly versatile asymmetric two-center catalyst, tartrate-derived diammonium salt (TaDiAS), was designed and a catalyst library containing more than 70 new two-center catalysts was constructed. A variety of (S,S)- and (R,R)-TaDiAS were easily synthesized from diethyl L- and D-tartrate, respectively, using common and inexpensive reagents under operationally simple reaction conditions. TaDiAS was used in phase-transfer alkylations and Michael additions to afford various optically active α-amino acid equivalents in up to 93% yield. Moreover, dramatic counter anion effects were observed in phase-transfer catalysis (PTC) for the first time, making it possible to further improve reactivity and selectivity. These findings validate the usefulness of three-dimensional fine-tuning of the catalyst (acetal, Ar, and counter anion) for optimization. Recovery and reuse of the catalyst was also possible using simple procedures. The present asymmetric PTC was successfully applied to enantioselective syntheses of serine protease inhibitor aeruginosin 298-A and its analogues.
