Heravi,* Vahideh Zadsirjan, Behnaz Farajpour Department of Chemistry, School of Science, Alzahra University, Vanak, Tehran, Iran Email: [email protected] Abstract Various chiral oxazolidinones (Evans' oxazolidinones) have been employed as effective chiral auxiliaries in the asymmetric alkylation of different enolates. This strategy has been found promising and successful when used as key step (steps) in the total synthesis of several biologically active natural products. In this report, we try to underscore the applications of Manuscript oxazolidinones as chiral auxiliary in asymmetric alkylation, and particularly in crucial chiral inducing steps in the total synthesis of natural products, showing biological activities.

    Chapter 8. Chiral Catalysts José M. Fraile, José I. García, José A. Mayoral 1. The Origin of Enantioselectivity in Catalytic Processes: the Nanoscale of Enantioselective Catalysis. Enantiomerically pure compounds are extremely important in fields such as medicine and pharmacy, nutrition, or materials with optical properties. Among the different methods to obtain enantiomerically pure compounds, asymmetric catalysis1 is probably the most interesting and challenging, in fact one single molecule of chiral catalyst can transfer its chiral information to thousands or even millions of new chiral molecules. Enantioselective reactions are the result of the competition between different possible diastereomeric reaction pathways, through diastereomeric transition states, when the prochiral substrate complexed to the chiral catalyst reacts with the corresponding reagent. The efficiency of the chirality transfer, measured as enantiomeric excess [% ee = (R−S)/(R+S) × 100], depends on electronic and steric factors in a very subtle form. A simple calculation shows that differences in energy of only 2 kcal/mol between these transition states are enough to obtain more than 90% ee, and small changes in any of the participants in the catalytic process can modify significantly this difference in energy. Those modifications may occur in the near environment of the catalytic centre, at less than 1 nm scale, but also at longer distances in the catalyst, substrate, reagent, solvent, or support in the case of immobilized catalysts. This is the reason because asymmetric

    Chapter 1 1.1.1 Chirality: Definition and its types: Until half a century ago, it was assumed that the forces of nature were symmetric and that they did not distinguish between right and left, between image and mirror image. The discovery of the violation of parity in 1956 was more than a sensation, for some it was a shock. It implied that the universe displays handedness, or chirality, and that it is fundamentally asymmetric.1 The idea of chirality has been known in chemistry since chiral chemistry got impetus from pioneering work by Louis Pasteur, a French chemist and biologist, who physically separated the two isomers of sodium ammonium tartrate in 1848 although it would be nearly a hundred years before chemists began using this term. In fact, in the first edition of Eliel's "Stereochemistry of Carbon Compounds" in 1962, the word chiral is not mentioned.2 The definition of chirality was first given by Lord Kelvin in May 1893, during a conference of the Oxford University Junior Scientific Club: “I call any geometrical figure, or group of points, chiral, and say it has chirality, if its image in a plane mirror, ideally realized, cannot be brought to coincide with itself.3” As Mislow has pointed out, Kelvin’s geometric definition of chirality is equivalent to that given many years later by Vladimir Prelog in his 1975 Nobel Prize lecture: “An object is chiral if it cannot be brought into congruence with its mirror image by translation or rotation.” Chirality is defined as a property of object which is non superimposable with its mirror image resulting in a pair of stereoisomers referred as enantiomers.
