Abstract

A family of chiral auxiliaries derived from the lignocellulosic biomass pyrolysis product levoglucosenone (LGO) has been screened in the sulfa-Michael reaction. When promoted by inorganic bases with potassium counterions, the auxiliary with geminal benzyl substituents showed diastereoselectivity up to 90:10 for a broad range of α,β-unsaturated esters.
