Poly(ethylene glycol)-supported bisoxazolines as ligands for catalytic enantioselective synthesis / R. Annunziata, M. Benaglia, M. Cinquini, F. Cozzi, M. Pitillo. - In: JOURNAL OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY. - ISSN 0022-3263. - 66:9(2001), pp. 3160-3166.
Abstract:
Two chiral bisoxazolines (box) supported on a modified poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) have been prepared by a reaction sequence that involved formation of the properly functionalized box and their attachment to the polymer matrix by means of a spacer and a linker. The solubility properties of PEG allowed use of the supported box as ligands in some catalytic asymmetric transformations carried out under homogeneous conditions and to recover the ligands as if bound to an insoluble support. When the supported box were employed in combination with Cu(II) salts in the Diels-Alder cycloaddition between cyclopentadiene and N-acryloyloxazolidinone, low levels of enantioselectivity were observed (up to 45% ee). Much better results were obtained in the cyclopropanation of styrenes carried out in the presence of CuOTf (up to 93% ee) and in the ene-reaction between α-methylstyrene or methylenecyclohexane and ethylglyoxalate (up to 95% ee). One of the ligands, readily recovered by precipitation and filtration, was recycled two times in the ene-reaction with marginal loss in the catalytic activity and very limited erosion of the enantioselectivity.
