Prediction of Soai Reaction Enantioselectivity Induced by Crystals of N-(2-Thienylcarbonyl)glycine

The enantioselectivity of the autocatalytic alkylation of 2-tert-butylpyrimidyl-5-carbaldehyde, initiated by chiral crystals of N-(2-thienylcarbonyl)glycine, is predicted computationally. The results are in accord with the correlation of the stereochemical outcome of the reaction and the absolute st...
