Abstract: | The enantioselective Friedel-Crafts reaction of electron-rich arenes and heteroarenes with the benzoylhydrazone of isopropyl glyoxylate mediated by a simple chiral silane Lewis acid is described. The reactions are highly practical, as demonstrated by a larger scale (5 g of the hydrazone) reaction in which the recovery of the pseudoephedrine in 99% yield was achieved. A simple model is advanced to explain the observed enantioselectivity. |
