Abstract
The synthesis of several polystyrene-supported BINOL (1,1-binaphthol) ligands via radical polymerization is described. These BINOL-based polymeric ligands were applied to the enantioselective addition of triethylaluminium to aromatic aldehyde in the presence of titanium isopropoxide. The products were obtained with up to 93% enantiomeric excess (ee) in good to excellent yield. The ligands were easily recovered and reused without losing their catalytic activity as well as enantioselectivity.
