Palladium/alkaline earth metal based racemization catalyst

Similarly, CALB has been used in combination with a palladium/alkaline earth metal-based racemization catalyst to effect a DKR on the benzylic amine 56e (Scheme 2.27). The (R)-amide 57e was obtained in very good yield and excellent optical purity. Several other substrates also underwent the reaction [29],...
