Abstract
Chiral Schiff-bases 3a-f based on ferrocene were designed and synthesized using solvent-free methods by mixing ferrocene carbaldehyde 1 with amino alcohols and amines 2a-f under microwave irradiation and classical method for the enantioselective nitroaldol (Henry) reaction. The Schiff-bases were obtained in shorter reaction times and improved yield under microwave irradiation method over classical method. The highest enantioselectivity was observed in ligand 3e (95% ee) when CH(2)Cl(2) was used as solvent.
