An unusual chiral-at-metal mechanism for BINOL-metal asymmetric catalysis by Zhenxing Li, Pengfei Chen, Zhigang Ni, Liuzhou Gao, Yue Zhao, Ranran Wang, Congqing Zhu, Guoqiang Wang, Shuhua Li

“…In this work, we demonstrate that the chiral-at-metal stereoinduction mode could serve as an alternative mechanism for BINOL-metal catalysis, based on mechanistic studies of BINOL-aluminum-catalyzed asymmetric hydroboration of heteroaryl ketones. Theoretical calculations reveal that an octahedral stereogenic-at-metal aluminum alkoxide species is the most stable species within the reaction system, and also is the catalytic relevant intermediate, promoting the stereo-determining hydroboration reaction through a ligand-assisted hydride transfer mechanism rather than the conventional hydroalumination mechanism. …”
