Abstract
Unprecedented absolute asymmetric synthesis was carried out using frozen chirality derived from chiral crystals of achiral coumarin-3-carboxamide and carbenoids. An enantioselective cycloaddition reaction with a sulfur ylide gave an optically active cyclopropane up to 97% ee. Furthermore, a cycloaddition reaction with dichlorocarbene gave dihydrofuran in 93% ee. Nucleophilic addition of ylide or carbene occurs from the side of the carbonyl oxygen atom to avoid steric hindrance of substituents on the nitrogen atom.
