Preparation of Mesoporous Silica-Supported Chiral Amino Alcohols for the Enantioselective Addition of Diethylzinc to Aldehyde and Asymmetric Transfer Hydrogenation to Ketones
Keyword(s):
Optically active (−)-ephedrine, (−)-norephedrine, and (−)-prolinol were immobilized onto cubic mesoporous MCM-48 silica. The immobilized amino alcohols served as a heterogeneous chiral catalyst for the asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes and transfer hydrogenation to ketones. The developed catalytic process yielded optically enriches secondary aromatic alcohols with 92–99% conversion and 70–82% enantioselectivity.
