Synthesis of l-threitol-based crown ethers and their application as enantioselective phase transfer catalyst in Michael additions
{{output}}
A few new l-threitol-based lariat ethers incorporating a monoaza-15-crown-5 unit were synthesized starting from diethyl l-tartrate. These macrocycles were used as phase transfer catalysts in asymmetric Michael addition reactions under mild conditions to afford... ...
