Abstract

An efficient enantioselective acylative desymmetrization of glycerol was developed by using a chiral DMAP derivatives 1e having a 1,1-binaphthyl unit. The reactions required only 0.1 mol% of the catalyst and showed moderate to good enantioselectivity (up to 94:6 er). Control experiments revealed that the first acylation of a glycerol derivative proceeded selectively rather than the second acylation to give diacylate.
