摘要
The activation of poorly reactive substrates via strong chiral acids is a central topic in asymmetric ion pair catalysis these days. Despite highly successful scaffolds such as N-triflylphosphoramides, these catalysts either lack C2-symmetry or provide multiple H-bond acceptor sites, leading to lower ee values for certain reactions. We present BINOL-based diselenophosphoric acids (DSA) as an extremely promising alternative. Using an intertwined approach of synthesis and NMR studies, we developed a synthetic approach to DSA with up to 98% NMR yield. The obtained acids provide both very high proton donor and proton acceptor properties, a bifunctionality, which is key to catalytic applications. Indeed, first reactivity test proved the much higher acidity of DSA and its ability to initiate Mukaiyama-Mannich reaction and protodesilylation of silyl ethers. Together with their C2-symmetry, the single donor and single acceptor situation, the decreased tendency of self-association, and the straightforward synthesis with potential 3,3'-substitution, the DSA provide all features ideal for the further development of ion pair catalysis.
