6,6'-Substituent effect of BINOL in bis-titanium chiral Lewis acid catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of nitrones.
By the accommodation of modified BINOLs as chiral ligands, enantioselectivities in the bis-titanium chiral Lewis acid catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of N-diphenylmethyl nitrones and methacrolein could be improved.
