Abstract
A 3-aryl H8-BINOL was grafted on the surface of silica gel using a hydrosilane derivative as a precursor, and the resulting silica-supported ligand (6 mol %) was employed in the enantioselective alkylation and arylation of aldehydes in the presence of Ti(OiPr)4. The reactions using Et2Zn, Et3B, and aryl Grignard reagents all afforded the corresponding adducts in high enantioselectivities and yields. The silica-immobilized titanium catalyst could be reused up to 14 times without appreciable deterioration of the activity.
