Abstract
Abstract: Chiral zirconium alkoxides prepared in situ from Zr (OBut) 4, TADDOL and acetone cyanohydrin in CH2Cl2 effect the enantioselective Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley cyanation of aldehydes, giving optically active cyanohydrins. The reaction proceeds catalytically with the aid of activated, powdered 4Å molecular sieves. Key words: chiral zirconium alkoxides, Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley cyanation, aldehydes, acetone cyanohydrin, optically active ...
