A wide array of functional groups on the acyl moiety, including alkyl and aryl substituents, olefins, esters, or a-cyclopropyl, as well as a-trifluoromethyl groups, are well tolerated. This transformation can therefore produce the a-aminoxylated adducts in excellent yields with high diastereomeric ratios (d.r.). In turn, parallel additions to the a,b-unsaturated N-acyl counterparts give the corresponding g-adducts with complete regioselectivity in moderate to good yields. Removal of the piperidinyl moiety or the chiral auxiliary converts the resultant adducts into enantiomerically pure a-hydroxy carboxyl derivatives, alcohols, or esters in high yields under mild conditions. Finally, a new mechanistic model based on the biradical character of the titanium(IV) enolates has been proposed.30 p.application/pdfeng(c) Wiley-VCH, 2014TitaniSíntesi asimètricaTitaniumAsymmetric synthesisinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6411972020-06-13info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
