Jq. Wang et al., DESIGN AND SYNTHESIS OF SOME NEW C-2-SYMMETRICAL CHIRAL DISULFONAMIDES FROM AMINO-ACIDS AND THE APPLICATION IN DIETHYLZINC ADDITION TO BENZALDEHYDE, Chinese journal of chemistry, 16(1), 1998, pp. 65-77
Nine C-2-symmetric chiral disulfonamides were designed and synthesized
from L-valine, L-phenylalanine and L-leucine respectively via one-pot
ring opening of aziridines. The application of these disulfonamides a
s catalyst in the addition of diethyl zinc to benzaldehyde in three re
agent systems: Ligand-Ti((OPr)-Pr-i)(4)-Et2Zn; Ligand-Ti((OPr)-Pr-i)(4
)-H2O-Et2Zn; Ligand-Et2Zn was also described.
