DBFOX/Ph was subsequently tested in enantioselective conjugate radical additions onto 3-(3-phenyl-2-propenoyl)-2-oxazolidinone. Two dozen Lewis acids were evaluated, and Mg(ClO4)2 emerged as the best Lewis acid in terms of yield and enantioselectivity (100% yield, 75.4% ee (S)). date: 1999-06-18 date_type: published publication: Tetrahedron Asymmetry volume: 10 number: 12 pagerange: 2417 - 2428 refereed: TRUE issn: 0957-4166 id_number: 10.1016/S0957-4166(99)00238-4 citation: Iserloh, U and Curran, DP and Kanemasa, S (1999) Enantioselective conjugate radical addition reactions mediated by chiral Lewis acid complexes of (R,R)-4,6-dibenzofurandiyl-2,2'-bis(4- phenyloxazoline) (DBFOX/Ph).
