The combined use of Lewis acids (electron‐pair acceptors) and Lewis bases (electron‐pair donors) for simultaneous activation of electrophiles and nucleophiles has proven to be a synthetically highly versatile concept. Catalytic systems consisting of Lewis acid and Lewis base functions, present in a single molecule or in separate molecules, frequently lead not only to enhanced reactivity, but also...
The use of (1R,2R)-N,N′-bis(2-pyridinecarboxyamido)-1,2-diphenylethane metal complexes as catalysts for the enantioselective addition of trimethylsilyl cyanide to aldehydes is described. Enantioselectivities up to 70% ee were obtained with a Ti(IV) catalyst. Complexes with Zr(IV), Sc(III), Yb(III) and Cu(II) afforded less selective catalysts. For the Zr(IV) complex, a rate and selectivity enhancement...
