Title: Iron-catalyzed asymmetric aerobic oxidation: oxidative coupling of 2-naphthols. Author: Egami H, Katsuki T. Journal: J Am Chem Soc; 2009 May 06; 131(17):6082-3. PubMed ID: 19361160. Abstract: Fe(salan) complexes were found to be efficient catalysts for the asymmetric aerobic oxidative coupling of 2-naphthol derivatives. This reaction can be carried out in air at 60 degrees C with high enantioselectivity up to 97% ee. This is the first report for asymmetric aerobic oxidation using molecular oxygen in air in the absence of additives.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
