Abstract

The interactions between the substrate and the ligand in the Sharpless AD reaction have been examined in detail, using a combination of substrate competition experiments and molecular modeling of transition states. There is a good agreement between computational and experimental results, in particular for the stereoselectivity of the reaction. The influence of each moiety in the second-generation ligand (DHQD) 2PHAL on the rate and selectivity of the reaction has been elucidated in detail.
