Abstract

Abstract Several strategies for the immobilization of a L-valine-derived auxiliary on a Merrifield resin and on poly (ethylene glycol) are reported. The latter is shown to work excellently in asymmetric copper (II)-catalyzed Michael reactions of cyclic β-oxo esters 2 with methyl vinyl ketone (4), yielding the corresponding addition products 5 with quaternary stereocenter in selectivities of 97–99% ee. The PEG-supported auxiliary 1d can be ...
