ASYMMETRIC DIELS-ALDER REACTIONS OF CYCLOPENTADIENE WITH N-ACRYLOYL-4,4-DIMETHYL-1,3-OXAZOLIDIN-2-ONE AND N-FUMAROYL-4,4-DIMETHYL-1,3-OXAZOLIDIN-2-ONE MEDIATED BY CHIRAL LEWIS-ACIDS

Diels-Alder reactions of cyclopentadiene with 3-acryloyl- (2b) and 3-f
umaroyl-4,4-dimethyl-1,3-oxazolidin-2-one (2c), mediated by chiral Lew
is acids, are described. EtAlCl2, TiCl4, SnCl4, ZrCl4, SiCl4, and BBr3
, Modified by derivatives Of L-tartaric acid, were applied as chiral p
romotors. The relatively low efficiency of the chirality transfer is d
iscussed.
