Abstract
The asymmetric Diels–Alder reaction of chalcone and isoprene has been accomplished by use of chiral titanium complexes. Notably, an enantiomeric excess as high as 61% and a regioselectivity of 95% have been achieved. The preparation of the chiral titanium complexes is simple and does not require the pre-installation of a chiral auxiliary. This study represents the first example of asymmetric Diels–Alder reaction between chalcone and isoprene.
期刊介绍:
Synthetic Communications presents communications describing new methods, reagents, and other synthetic work pertaining to organic chemistry with sufficient experimental detail to permit reported reactions to be repeated by a chemist reasonably skilled in the art. In addition, the Journal features short, focused review articles discussing topics within its remit of synthetic organic chemistry.
