ChemInform Abstract
An unexpected influence of the substitution of the dioxolane ring on the direction of asymmetric induction in a Diels—Alder reaction catalyzed by TiCl2—TADDOLates is observed. MM2 calculations of the structures and relative energies of the possible dienophile—catalyst complexes are presented to offer a tentative explanation.
