The desymmetrization of meso-diamines was accomplished via enantioselective monobenzoylation facilitated by the cooperative action of two small-molecule catalysts. A chiral acyl-transfer reagent is formed in situ through the interplay of benzoic anhydride, 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine as a nucleophilic catalyst, and a chiral amide-thiourea cocatalyst.
通过两种小分子催化剂的协同作用,实现了介二胺的非对映选择性单苯甲酰化。通过苯甲酰酐、作为亲核催化剂的 4-(二甲基氨基)吡啶和手性酰胺-硫脲共催化剂的相互作用,原位形成手性酰基转移试剂。
