A serial of biphenyl bisimidazolines containing both axial and central chirality have been synthesized for the first time. Compared with common method, Ullmann coupling methodology exhibited superior performance expecially for t-Bu substituted ligands. The obtained ligands were further applied in the Cu-catalyzed asymmetric cyclopropanation.
- imidazoline,
- axial chirality,
- central chirality,
- asymmetric cyclopropanation
