Title: Chiral phosphoric acid-catalyzed desymmetrization of meso-aziridines with functionalized mercaptans. Author: Larson SE, Baso JC, Li G, Antilla JC. Journal: Org Lett; 2009 Nov 19; 11(22):5186-9. PubMed ID: 19905027. Abstract: Conditions for the phosphoric acid-catalyzed highly enantioselective ring-opening of meso-aziridines with a series of functionalized aromatic thiol nucleophiles are described. The procedure utilizes commercially available aromatic thiols, a series of meso-aziridines, and a catalytic amount of VAPOL phosphoric acid to explore the substrate scope of this highly enantioselective reaction.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
