title: anti-Selective Asymmetric Henry Reaction Catalyzed by a Heterobimetallic Cu-Sm-Aminophenol Sulfonamide Complex.
abstract: A novel heterobimetallic Cu/Sm/aminophenol sulfonamide complex has been developed by a convenient one-pot method for the anti-selective asymmetric Henry reaction. The corresponding anti-β-nitro alcohols are obtained in up to 99% yield, >30:1 dr, and 98% ee. The results of control experiments and ESI-MS analysis of the complex indicate that the monomeric bimetallic Cu/Sm/1 complex would be the active species.
