Catalytic enantioselective addition of diethylzinc to ketones using chiral biisoquinoline ligands.
Biisoquinolines have been known to be good chelating agents. Four chiral biisoquinoline-based ligands were synthesized and used for asymmetric catalytic addition of diethylzinc to ketones. The reaction was tested for optimal conditions – type of ligands, catalyst loading, temperature, type of sol...
