Asymmetric general base catalysis of the phospho-aldol reaction via dimeric aluminium hydroxides

Dimeric aluminium hydroxide complexes containing the (R,R)-N,N'-bis(2'-hydroxy-3'-organobenzyl)-trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane ligand backbone effect catalysis of the phospho-aldol reaction under ambient, aerobic conditions at catalyst loadings of 0.5 mol% to afford enantioselectivities...

Description
Summary:Dimeric aluminium hydroxide complexes containing the (R,R)-N,N'-bis(2'-hydroxy-3'-organobenzyl)-trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane ligand backbone effect catalysis of the phospho-aldol reaction under ambient, aerobic conditions at catalyst loadings of 0.5 mol% to afford enantioselectivities of ca. 65%.
