✦ Synopsis


The Lewis-acid mediated transfer of an alkoxide ligand from the chiral ligand sphere of Ti-TADDOLates ! to cyclic carboxylic acid derivatives is described. The kinetic resolution of dioxolanones, azlactones and biaryl lactones by the Ti-TADDOLates affords, after recrystallization, ester products in highly enantioenriched form (er > 97:3). The enantiomer-differentiating ring-opening of a chiral cyclic anhydride by a Ti-TADDOLate leads highly enantioselectively to two constitutional isomers.
