Phase-transfer catalysed asymmetric epoxidation of enones using N-anthracenylmethyl-substituted Cinchona alkaloids
Barry Lygo,P. G. Wainwright +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a study into the enantioselective epoxidation of α, β-unsaturated ketones using Cinchona alkaloid-derived quaternary ammonium phase-transfer catalysts bearing an N-anthracenylmethyl function is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Studies on the enantioselective synthesis of α-amino acids via asymmetric phase-transfer catalysis
TL;DR: In this paper, the use of cinchona alkaloid-derived quaternary ammonium phase-transfer catalysts for the asymmetric alkylation of a benzophenone-derived glycine-imine was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure–selectivity studies on catalysts for the phase-transfer catalysed asymmetric alkylation of glycine imine esters
TL;DR: In this article, a series of chiral quaternary ammonium salts with core structures that are closely related to the cinchona alkaloid, cinchonine, were synthesized for benzylation of a glycine imine.
