摘要
This article describes the synthesis of a library of structurally diverse bifunctional organocatalysts bearing both a quasi-Lewis acidic (thio) urea moiety and a Bronsted basic tertiary amine group. Sequential modi. cation of the modular catalyst structure and subsequent screening of the compounds in the alcoholytic dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) of azlactones revealed valuable structure-activity relationships. In particular, a "hit-structure" was identified which provides e. g. N-benzoyl-tert-leucine allyl ester in an excellent enantiomeric excess of 95%.
