Graphical Abstract
Von Peptiden abgeleitete chirale Liganden fördern die Al-katalysierte enantioselektive Addition von Trimethylsilylcyanid an aromatische und aliphatische, cyclische und acyclische Ketone (Beispiel siehe Schema). Sie sind einfach herzustellen, werden leicht wiedergewonnen und lassen sich ohne Aktivitäts- oder Selektivitätsverlust erneut einsetzen.
