ChemInform Abstract: Synthesis of New Planar Chiral [2.2]Paracyclophane Schiff Base Ligands and Their Application in the Asymmetric Henry Reaction.

Abstract

AbstractA variety of ligands combining a planar chiral paracyclophane backbone with enantiopure amino alcohols (I) and (II) is prepared and applied in the copper‐catalyzed asymmetric Henry reaction of aldehydes (III) and (VI) with nitromethane.
