Finally, we also tested whether these a-amina:ons can be rendered enan:oselec:ve by using chiral ammonium salt catalysts. A variety of different catalyst scaffolds and condi:ons were tested 17 and so far we were able to iden:fy Maruoka's spiro ammonium salt catalyst D1 as the best suited one (Scheme 3). This, nowadays commercially available, privileged catalyst allowed for measurable but low asymmetric induc:on under the standard condi:ons using Ca(OCl)2 as the oxidant (noteworthy longer reac:on :mes as compared to the racemic approach were necessary). By varying the condi:ons, we found that aqueous NaOCl allows for higher enan:oselec:vi:es up to 72:28 er so far, thus represen:ng a promising founda:on for future inves:ga:ons.
