摘要: Abstract Chiral N-heterocyclic carbenes are generated from C2-symmetric 1,3-bis(1-arylethyl)imidazolium salts and potassium tert-butoxide. These imidazolidenyl catalyze enantioselective acylation of racemic secondary alcohols. The asymmetric 1-(1-naphthyl)ethanol was achieved in up to 68% ee the acylated product, using (R,R)-1,3-bis[(1-naphthyl)ethyl]imidazolium tetrafluoroborate as a precursor chiral carbene vinyl propionate acyl donor.
