Description
Summary:Enantioselective reductive desymmetrization of glutarimides has been achieved employing an oxazaborolidine catalyst derived from cis-1-amino-indan-2-ol. The reaction was found to proceed through a stereoablative process that upgraded the enantioselectivity of an intermediate hydroxy-lactam. The reaction was generally tolerant of a number of substituents in the 4-position, giving enantiomeric excesses of greater than 82%.
