AI Article Synopsis

  • This study introduces a new method using chiral phosphoric acid to catalyze an efficient and selective reaction called asymmetric reductive amination involving biaryl dialdehydes.
  • The approach includes a desymmetrization step followed by kinetic resolution to produce axially chiral aryl aldehydes.
  • The resulting products exhibit high optical purity, making this process significant for creating complex chiral molecules.

Article Abstract

Herein we present an efficient chiral phosphoric-acid-catalyzed atropoenantioselective asymmetric reductive amination of biaryl dialdehydes. The process involves desymmetrization and the following kinetic resolution, with a wide range of axially chiral aryl aldehydes obtained with high optical purities.
