Abstract
Chiral methylsulfonyl-based sulfamide-amine alcohol (SAA) ligands were synthesized from commercially available starting materials in two simple steps. Methylsulfonyl-based SAA ligands catalyzed the asymmetric alkynylation of various aldehydes using alkynylzinc to provide chiral propargyl alcohols with moderate to good enantioselectivity up to 83% ee.
