71. While this manuscript was being prepared an interesting report from Luo and Cheng appeared that demonstrated that a magnetic nanoparticle-supported trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane-derived catalyst could promote highly enantioselective aldol reactions with good catalyst recyclability. The catalyst was active at 20 mol % levels and was shown to be recyclable over 11 cycles. A significant drop in selectivity (particularly diastereoselectivity) was observed after 8 runs and the overall drop in product yield and ee over the 11 runs was 8 % and 9 %, respectively. See ref. [4w].
72. While the enantioselectivity (90% ee) and recyclability (up to 60 cycles) were impressive, yields were moderate (averaging 60%) and the catalyst was employed at undisclosed loadings (yet considerably higher than 100 mol%) in conjunction with both Brønsted-basic and scavenger resins. The catalyst also required 'ageing' and did not provide consistent results until after 5-10 catalyst cycles due to leaching of the quinine-component from the support. See: A. M. Hafez, A. E. Taggi, T. Duddling, T. Leckta, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2001, 123,10853.
