Abstract
Carbonyl polarity reversal (umpolung) has been realized employing metallophosphites as catalysts. As a result, nonenzymatic asymmetric cross silyl benzoin reactions have been achieved, giving optically active silyl ether-protected benzoin adducts. The reaction is general with respect to aryl, alkyl, and heterocyclic substrates with good to excellent yields and good to excellent enantioselectivities.Entities:
