10 - 049The Search for Tolerant Lewis Acid Catalysts. Part 1. Chi-ral Silicon Lewis Acids Derived from (-)-Myrtenal. — Thechiral catalysts (I) containing a bulky silicon group in association with abis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide group are tested in cycloaddition reactionsof cyclopentadiene with esters (II). The best result is obtained with (Ib); thee.e. values are the highest ones ever reported for a chiral silicon Lewis acid. —(MATHIEU, BENOIT; DE FAYS, LAURENCE; GHOSEZ, LEON; TetrahedronLett. 41 (2000) 49, 9561-9564; Lab.
