Permethylated NHC-capped a - and b -cyclodextrins (ICyDMe) Regioselective and enantioselective gold-catalysis in pure water.

A series of water-soluble encapsulated copper(I), silver(I) or gold(I) complexes based on NHC-capped permethylated cyclodextrins ( ICyD Me ) were developed and used as catalysts in pure water for hydration, lactonization, hydroarylation and cycloisomerization reactions. ICyD Me ligands gave cavity-based high regioselectivity in hydroarylations, and high enantioselectivities in gold-catalyzed cycloisomerizations reactions giving up to 98% ee in water. These ICyD Me are therefore useful ligands for selective catalysis in pure water.
