Abstract

New bifunctional asymmetric catalysts containing a Lewis acid Ti(IV)/V(IV) and a Lewis base were developed and applied to the catalytic asymmetric cyanosilylation of benzaldehyde and oxidation of sulfides to chiral sulfoxides. The products were obtained with moderate to low enantiomeric excess.

Key words: Lewis acid; Lewis base; asymmetric catalyst; cyanosilylation; chiral sulfoxide.

 

Resumen

Se han desarrollado nuevos catalizadores asimétricos bifuncionales que contienen un ácido de Lewis y una base de Lewis, y se han aplicado a las reacciones asimétricas catalíticas de cianosililación de benzaldehído y oxidación de sulfuros a sulfóxidos quirales. Los productos se obtuvieron con excesos enantioméricos de moderados a bajos.

Palabras clave: Ácido de Lewis; Base de Lewis; catalizador asimétrico; cianosililación; sulfóxido quiral.
