Abstract
The Mukaiyama aldol reaction of 2-styryl-oxazole-4-carbaldehyde (1) as model substrate with S-ketene silyl acetal 2 catalyzed by poly(ethylene glycol)-supported binaphthyl-derived chiral titanium(IV) complexes afforded the corresponding aldol product in good to excellent yields and enantioselectivities up to 94% ee. The chemical yields and/or the enantioselectivities are enhanced by generating the active catalyst from Ti(OiPr)4, polymer-supported ligands (R)-6 or (R)-8, and chiral or achiral promoters. Pyrrolidine derivative (S)-13 and trifluoromethyl-substituted phenol 12 are the most efficient additives found.
