Abstract
Asymmetric Diels-Alder reactions of 1,4-naphthoquinone and 2-acetyl-1, 4-naphthoquinone with cyclopentadiene catalyzed by bis(oxazoline)-meta l complexes afforded the corresponding Diels-Alder adducts. Moderate l evels of enantiomeric excess were obtained and a number of different r eaction conditions evaluated. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd. All right s reserved.
