Abstract
A vanadium-catalyzed method for the oxidative kinetic resolution of alpha-hydroxyesters, using oxygen as the terminal oxidant, is described. The catalyst is generated in situ from vanadium(V) tri-iso-propoxyoxide in combination with a tridentate ligand derived from 3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylaldehyde and (S)-tert-leucinol. The reaction allows for the enantioselective synthesis of both aromatic and aliphatic secondary alcohols, including those containing olefins and alkynes.Entities:
