Abstract
Crude preparations obtained from mamey (Pouteria sapota), capulin (Prunus serotina var. capulli) and peach (Prunus persica) leaves were used to catalyze the enantioselective addition of HCN to a variety of aldehydes. The corresponding cyanohydrins were obtained with high levels of enantioselectivity, comparable with those obtained with other catalysts used for the same purpose.
