Abstract
The binuclear chiral (salen) Co complexes bearing Lewis acid salt (Al and Ga) and 4-nitrobenzene sulfonic acid (NBS) catalyze the enantioselective ring opening of terminal epoxides with phenol derivatives. The easily prepared complexes exhibited very high catalytic reactivity and enantioselectivity for the asymmetric ring opening of terminal epoxides with phenol and consequently provide enantiomerically enriched corresponding α-aryloxy alcohols (up to >99% ee). The two unit of salen complexes combined by Lewis acid exhibited co-operative catalysis during the ring opening reaction.
