CHIRAL BISOXAZOLINE CATALYSTS

摘要

The present invention describes a heterogeneous chiral catalyst comprising a heterogeneous chiral catalyst precursor complexed with a metal species. The precursor comprises a chiral bisoxazoline group coupled to an inorganic substrate. The heterogeneous chiral catalyst may be capable of catalysing a chemical reaction, for example cyclopropanation, and the chemical reaction may be capable of generating a chiral product.
