We synthesized the optically active epineoclausenamide by utilizing chiral reagents, such as R-α-methylbenzylamine and S-α-methylbenzylamine, for the resolution of the intermediate (trans-3-phenyl-oxiranecarboxylic acid 12), followed by amide exchange, cy

A study aimed at the synthesis and structure optimization of new, efficient, optically active β-amino alcohol ligands with a structure suitable for immobilization on magnetite nanoparticles has been carried out. The optimized homogeneous amino alcohol catalysts 13a and 13b, the chirality of which arises from the Sharpless epoxidation of suitable allyl alcohols, were tested by employing the well-established enantioselective amino alcohol-promoted addition of diethylzinc to benzaldehyde, giving the corresponding benzyl alcohol with nearly quantitative yield and ee = 95%. Then, their broad applicability as chiral catalysts was evaluated by carrying out the same reaction on a family of aldehydes, including variously substituted aromatic ones as well as an aliphatic analogue. The results have confirmed the validity of the fine-tuning process performed on ligands 13a and 13b. In fact, both exhibited excellent catalytic activity as demonstrated by the chemical yields and ee obtained from all the tested aldehydes, almost independent of the position and type of substitution in the aromatic ring.

The asymmetric epoxidation of substituted cinnamic acids has been obtained in the presence of different keto bile acid derivatives as optically active carbonyl inducers and Oxone as oxygen source. Predominant or almost exclusive formation of both enantiomeric epoxides is obtained (ee up to 95%) depending on the specific substitution at carbons C(7) and C(12) of the bile acid.
