Size is Important: Artificial Catalyst Mimics Behavior of Natural Enzymes
Summary: Heavily substituted (R)-DTBM-SegPHOS is active in the asymmetric Pd(II)-catalyzed hydrogenation or C−O bond cleavage of α-pivaloyloxy-1-(2-furyl)ethanone, whereas (R)-SegPHOS fails to catalyze either of these transformations. An extensive network of C−H ··· H−C interactions provided by the ...
