Chiral bis(oxazoline) ligands have been applied in many enatioselective reactions.Recently, studies of the immobilization of bis(oxazoline) on both soluble and insoluble supports have been of great interest. Among the different methods to anchor the homogeneous catadysts, a soluble, polymer-supported catalyst usually achieves higher stereoselectivity and activity because the catalysis can be separated and recycled via simple methods such as solvent precipitation.Dendrimers are highly branched macromolecules having precisely defined molecular structures with nano-scale size. Compared with soluble polymer supports, the dendrimer architecture may offer better control of the deposition of the catalytic species in soluble polymer-based catalysts. Therefore,such catalysts may fill the gap between homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis and combine the advantages of both.In this paper, we report the synthesis of bis(oxazoline)-centered dendrimers and their application in Mukaiyama aldol reaction in aqueous media. It was found that the dendritic chiral bis(oxazolines)showed the similar reactivities and enantioselectivities in the asymmetric copper-catalyzed aldol reaction in aqueous media in comparison to the corresponding small molecular ligands.
