Abstract
Schiff bases derived from (1R,2R)-1,2-diaminocyclohexane and 1 eq. of salycylic (or substituted salycylic) aldehyde form stereochemically inert positively charged chiral octahedral Coiii complexes of Δ-configuration with the stereoselectivity approaching 100%. To evaluate the calatylic activity and stereoinduction of the resulting complexes with various counteranions in the outer sphere, a model reaction of trimethylsilyl cyanide addition to benzaldehyde was used. O-trimethylsilylmandelonitrile formed in the process had an enantiomeric purity up to 27%. Complexes with F− counterion showed high catalytic activity.
