Substituent effects and mechanism elucidation of enantioselective sulfoxidation catalyzed by vanadium Schiff base complexes

摘要

The effects of substituents of the Schiff base ligands on oxo-vanadium-catalyzed enantioselective sulfoxidation were first systematically studied, and a rational mechanism of enantioselective sulfoxidation based on our experimental data and the reported data is proposed.
