Title:
MAIN-GROUP METAL-BASED ASYMMETRIC CATALYSTS AND APPLICATIONS THEREOF
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO1999056699
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and catalysts for the stereoselective addition of a nucleophile to a reactive pi -bond of a substrate. The chiral, non-racemic catalysts of the present invention constitute the first examples of catalysts for nucleophilic additions that comprise a main-group metal and a tri- or tetra-dentate ligand.
