Enantioselective Organocatalytic Three-Component Petasis Reaction among Salicylaldehydes, Amines, and Organoboronic Acids

摘要

The catalytic enantioselective three-component Petasis reaction among salicylaldehydes, amines, and organoboronic acids with a newly designed thiourea-binol catalyst is presented. A broad range of alkylaminophenols can be obtained in good yield (up to 92%) and good to high enantioselectivity (up to 95% ee). A possible reaction pathway for this catalytic enantioselective Petasis reaction is tentatively proposed.
