The first example of enantioselective isocyanosilylation of mesoepoxides with TMSCN catalyzed by novel chiral organogallium and indium complexes

Abstract

The desymmetrization ring opening of meso epoxides using trimethylsilyl cyanide catalyzed by organogallium and indium complexes with binaphthol monoether derivatives as chiral ligands gave β-isocyanohydrins with moderate to excellent enantioselectivities of up to 95% ee.
