ABSTRACT:
Nonmetallic org. catalysts are provided that facilitate the enantioselective reaction of .alpha.,.beta.-unsatd. ketones. The catalysts are chiral imidazolidinone compds. I or II there acid addn. salts [R1 = C1-6-alkyl; R2 = Ph, 2-methylfuryl; R3, R4 = H; R5 = (un)substituted Ph (with 1 or 2 substituents selected from halo, OH, C1-6-alkyl)]. The chiral imidazolinones are useful in catalyzing a wide variety of reactions, including cycloaddn. reactions, Friedel-Crafts alkylation reactions, and Michael addns. Thus, I [R1 = Me, R2 = 5-methyl-2-furyl, R3 = R4 = H, R5 = Ph] was used to catalyze the Diels-Alder reaction of cyclopentadiene with MeCH:CHCOEt to give 89% (+)-2-endo-3-exo-[3-methylbicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-yl]propan-1-one (90% e.e.).
