The synthesis of chiral tridentate N,N,N-pyridine-2.6-bisoxazolines 3 (pyhox ligands) and N,N,N-pyridine-2.6-bisoxazines 4 (pyboxazine ligands) is described in detail. These novel ligands constitute a useful tool-box for the application in asymmetric catalysis. Compounds 3 and 4 are conveniently prepared by cyclization of enantiomerically pure α- or β-amino al cohols with dimethyl pyridine-2,6-dicarboximidate. The corresponding ruthenium complexes are efficient asymmetric epoxidation catalysts and have been prepared in good yield and fully char acterized by spectroscopic means. Four of these ruthenium complexes have been characterized by X-ray crystallography. For the first time the molecular structure of a pyboxazine complex (2,6-bis-[(4S)-4-phenyl-5,6- dihydro-4H-[1,3]oxazinyl]pyridine)(pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylate)ruthenium (S)-2aa, is presented.
