Direct asymmetric iodination of aldehydes using an axially chiral bifunctional amino alcohol catalyst
Abstract
A direct asymmetric iodination reaction of aldehydes with NIS was found to be catalyzed by the novel axially chiral bifunctional amino alcohol (S)-1d. This method represents the rare example of the catalytic and highly enantioselective synthesis of optically active alpha-iodoaldehydes.
