Since with none of the evaluated ligands high enantioselectivities could be achieved, we questioned whether structurally related urea derivatives UL might be viable for the envisioned atropoenantioselective cobalt electrocatalysis. This encouraged us to synthesize a series of chiral oxazoline ureas UL1-UL6 and evaluate them as ligands in our catalytic system. Interestingly, with simple phenylsubstituted oxazoline urea UL1, the desired C-N atropoisomer 3 could be obtained in 50% yield and so far, with the highest enantioselectivity (88.5:11.5 e.r.).
