title: Chiral lanthanum(III)-binaphthyldisulfonate complexes for catalytic enantioselective Strecker reaction.
abstract: A catalytic enantioselective Strecker reaction catalyzed by novel chiral lanthanum(III)-binaphthyl disulfonate complexes was developed. The key to promoting the reactions was a semistoichiometric amount of AcOH or i-PrCO(2)H, which takes advantage of HCN generation in situ. The corresponding cyanation products were obtained in high yields and with high enantioselectivities.
