of solvent or with undistilled THF in air. A supported chiral ligand that effectively
promotes the asymmetric reaction can be recycled at least fi ve cycles.
Recently, Yamamoto and Kawasaki reported on Ag(I)-catalyzed asymmetric azo
HDA reactions (Scheme 8D.73) [112]. The reaction with 2-azopyridine and siloxydiene
catalyzed by the combination of AgOTf (10 mol %) and (
R
) - BINAP (5 mol %) proceeds
in EtCN as a solvent to afford the corresponding cycloadducts in high yield and enan-
tioselectivity. The cycloadduct (R
1
, R
2
= Me) can be converted into the protected
1,4 - diaminoalcohol by SmI
2
-mediated cleavage of the N-N bond with trifl uoroacetyl
group as a key step [113].
