The novel dimethoxyl(aminoalkoxy)borate 1 was isolated as a white crystalline dimer joined by H-bonding as evidenced by X-ray analysis, and demonstrated to be a highly effective catalyst for the asymmetric reduction of representative prochiral ketones with borane-DMS. Optically pure alcohols were obtained using only 1 mol% of catalyst 1 in up to 99% ee.
新型二甲氧基(氨基烷氧基)硼酸盐1经分离得到白色结晶二聚体,通过X射线分析证明其通过氢键连接,并被证明是用硼烷-二甲硫醚对代表性前手性酮进行不对称还原的高效催化剂。仅使用1 mol%的催化剂1,即可获得高达99%对映体过量的光学纯醇。
