Polystyrenes with chiral phosphoramide substituents as Lewis base catalysts for asymmetric addition of allyltrichlorosilane: enhancement of catalytic performance by polymer effect.
In the asymmetric addition of allyltrichlorosilane to benzaldehyde, polystyrenes with chiral phosphoramide substituents as Lewis base catalysts showed up to 2.4 times better catalytic activity and 1.4 times higher enantioselectivity than the corresponding low-molecular-weight analogues.
