Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We tried to develop new methods to generate transition metal-carbene species without using diazo compounds. We initially tried direct generation of the transition metal-carbene species from methylene compounds under oxidative conditions; but, all trials failed. Thus, we investigated alternative methods by using iodonium ylides as starting materials. In this case, the reaction proceeded smoothly. Therefore, we then turned our attention to develop new chiral catalysts for stereocontrol using iodonium ylides. After intensive investigation, we finally found chiral Ru complex was the best, giving cyclopropanes in up to 97% enantioselectivity.
