SuperQuat, (S)-4-benzyl-5,5-dimethyl-oxazolidin-2-one for the asymmetric synthesis of α-substituted-aldehydes
Bull SD., Davies SG., Nicholson RL., Sanganee HJ., Smith AD.
Reduction of α-substituted-(S)-N-acyl-4-benzyl-5,5-dimethyl-oxazolidin-2-ones with DIBAL-H in CH2Cl2 affords α-substituted aldehydes with no loss of stereochemical integrity at their α-centre. Copyright (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
