✦ Synopsis
Five enantiopure C(2)-substituted 10-[(dimethylamino)methyl]isoborneols has been prepared by a novel straightforward camphor-based route, and probed as d-amino-alcohol ligands for the enantioselective addition of diethylzinc to benzaldehyde. The established route constitutes a divergent model procedure for this class of d-amino-isoborneol ligands, allowing different substitutions, not only at the nitrogen atom, but also at the more interesting hydroxyl-bearing C(2)-norbornane position. This last synthetic possibility has made possible a study of the role played by the group located at the C(2)-norbornane position on the catalytic activity. New catalyst models and transition-state models for explaining such a role are also proposed and discussed.
