gluco Pybox
Scheme 13.12 Synthesis of gluco Pybox ligand 50.
The catalytic system CuOTf/ gluco Pybox afforded an excellent 99% ee and 69%
yield in the addition of phenylacetylene to imines (Table 13.6, entry 1). The cata-
lytic system appears to be very sensitive to the substituents R 1 -R 3 . Thus, for R 1 or
R 2
4-MeOPh, the ee decreased to 80 and 90%, respectively (entries 2 and 3). The
ee was also 90% when (trimethylsilyl)acetylene was used (R 3
=
TMS), although the
yield dropped significantly (entry 4). However, when substituents of the amino
and acetylene moieties were simultaneously modified racemic product was
obtained (entry 5). The ee values did not exceeded 75% when substituted benzal-
dehyde or aliphatic aldehydes were used (entry 6).
