Abstract
C2-symmetrical bis(oxazoline) ligands bearing pendant alkylthio ether groups were synthesized, and the structures of Cu complexes were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The potential utility in catalysis was shown in the asymmetric addition of methyllithium to an aromatic aldimine, which resulted in a mixture of products with an enantiomeric excess of 68%.Key words: two-center catalysis, bis(oxazoline), aldimine, imine alkylation.
