A series of amino acid-based oxazoline compounds have been prepared and successfully applied to the enantioselective allylation reaction of aldehydes. The fine-tuning of the structure of the oxazolines led to (S,S)-4 as an efficient organocatalyst which gave homoallyl alcohols in good yield (up to 90%) and excellent ee (up to 99%) for a wide range of substrates including aromatic, hetero-aromatic and α,β-unsaturated aldehydes. The chiral organocatalyst was synthesized in three easy steps with an overall 88% yield and successfully recycled for up to three cycles. On the basis of the experimental observations and NMR studies, a probable mechanism was proposed for this reaction.

A chiral oxazoline-based or-ganocatalyst has been found to efficiently catalyze asymmetric Strecker reactions of various aromatic and aliphatic N-benzhydrylimines with trime-thylsilyl cyanide (TMSCN) as a cyanide source at -20°C to give α-aminoni-triles in high yield (96%) with excellent chiral induction (up to 98% ee). DFT calculations have been performed to rationalize the enantioselective formation of the product with the organo-catalyst in these reactions. The organo-catalyst has been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, as well as by other analytical methods. This protocol has been extended to the synthesis of the pharmaceutically important drug molecule levamisole in high yield and with high enantioselectivity.

New sulfonamide-derived hydroxamic acids 7-11 have been developed as chiral ligands for the V-catalysed asymmetric epoxidation, showing high reactivity at subzero temperatures and moderate to good enantioselectivity. The strong accelerating effect exhibited by the ligands of this type can be attributed to the sulfonamide functionality. A range of cinnamyl type allylic alcohols were epoxidised with up to 74% ee.
