The copper-catalyzed reductive coupling of two different carbonyl compounds has been achieved. The reaction of aromatic aldehydes and arylketones with a silylboronate in the presence of a catalytic amount of a CuCl-N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complex and a stoichiometric amount of alkoxide base yielded cross-coupled 1,2-diol derivatives. A reaction pathway is proposed that involves the catalytic formation of a nucleophilic α-silyloxybenzylcopper(I) species from the aromatic aldehyde and its subsequent coupling with the arylketone. This process was amenable to asymmetric catalysis. This copper catalyst system also enabled the reductive coupling between aromatic aldehydes and imines.

Two novel chiral biphenyl iminium salts derived from L-acetonamine, containing electron-withdrawing 3,30-substituents on the biphenyl unit, have been prepared and tested as asymmetric catalysts for epoxidation of prochiral alkenes. The results are compared with those achieved using the corresponding unsubstituted system.
Comprehensive experimental and theoretical studies of configurationally labile epimeric diamine complexes of α-lithiated benzyl carbamates

Different primary benzyl-type carbamates were deprotonated by sec-butyllithium in the presence of a tert-leucinol-derived bis(oxazoline) ligand. The resulting configurationally labile epimeric complexes equilibrated and one diastereomer was strongly favor
