Abstract
Enantiopure 2-(aminoalkyl)phenol derivatives are an interesting class of compounds widely used in homogeneous ligand accelerated catalysis. A series of practical and convenient methods available for their preparation are revised, together with the methodologies for the determination of their configuration. The uses of these compounds in metal catalysed asymmetric reactions in the addition of dialkyl zinc reagents to aldehydes and in the reduction of ketones with borane are described. Moreover 2-(aminoalkyl)phenol derivatives have found use also as chiral shift reagents for carboxylic acids.File in questo prodotto:
