Enantioselective Conjugate Addition of a Lithium Ester Enolate Catalyzed by Chiral Lithium Amides: A Possible Intermediate Characterized

Posted on 2009-05-07 - 00:00
Two 1:1 noncovalent mixed aggregates between a lithium enolate and two diastereomeric lithium amides have been identified spectroscopically in THF. The NMR data, as well as DFT theoretical calculations, shine some light on a puzzling reversal of induction, observed when switching from one diastereomer of the amide to the other in the enantioselective Michael addition of the lithium enolate to an unsaturated ester.
