【 摘 要 】

Novel guanidine-bisurea bifunctional organocatalysts 5 bearing a chiral pyrrolidine moiety on guanidine were designed with the guidance of DFT calculations. The resulting organocatalysts 5 were examined for α-hydroxylation of tetralone-derived β-keto esters, and good selectivity was obtained with 5j bearing a methoxymethyl ether-containing chiral pyrrolidine moiety.
