β¦ Synopsis
AbstractΓA large set of copper complexes, prepared in situ from copper(I)-triΒ―ate and a variety enantiopure oxazoline ligands, was assessed as chiral catalysts in the enantioselective cyclopropanation of styrene by ethyl diazoacetate. Enantioselectivities up to 60% and up to 52%, respectively, for trans-and cis-2-phenylcyclopropanecarboxylate were observed.
