And the article contained the following:

We report here an application of iron catalysis for the kilogram scale asym. synthesis of a proton pump inhibitor, esomeprazole, in 87% yield and 99.4% ee by catalytic sulfoxidation with hydrogen peroxide using an iron salt/chiral Schiff base in combination with a carboxylate salt. Under similar reaction conditions, other proton pump inhibitors such as (S)-lansoprazole, (S)-rabeprazole, and (S)-pantoprazole, were also synthesized in high yield and ee. A carboxylate additive was crucial for the success of this reaction, and we consider that it coordinates to the active iron species, and it also acts as a hydrogen-bond acceptor to coordinate to the substrate through the imidazole NH. The experimental process involved the reaction of 5-Methoxy-2-[[(4-methoxy-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyridyl)methyl]thio]benzimidazole(cas: 73590-85-9).Related Products of 73590-85-9
