邻亚甲基苯醌(o-QMs)是一类高反应活性的有机中间体, 在碳-碳键及碳-杂原子键的催化不对称构筑中发挥着重要作用. 但是, 该类中间体高度不稳定, 导致这类中间体参与的催化不对称反应发展缓慢. 利用前体原位产生o-QMs中间体可以有效解决这一问题. 因此, 发展原位产生的o-QMs中间体参与的催化不对称反应引起了化学工作者的关注. 而发展此类反应的关键是开发简便易得、结构稳定的o-QMs中间体前体. 邻羟基苄醇是一类具有独特优势的o-QMs前体, 近年来, 其参与的催化不对称[4+n]环加成反应、串联环化反应及亲核加成反应发展十分迅速, 已经成为合成手性含氧杂环及芳基甲烷衍生物的高效策略. 综述了邻羟基苄醇参与的催化不对称反应, 将为设计新型邻羟基苄醇及其参与的催化不对称反应提供新的思路.

Ortho-quinone methides (o-QMs) belong to a class of highly reactive organic intermediates, which play an important role in catalytic asymmetric formations of carbon-carbon bond and carbon-heteroatom bond. However, o-QMs are highly unstable, which led to the underdevelopment of catalytic asymmetric reactions involving o-QMs. The utilization of some precursors for in situ generating o-QMs is a solution to address this challenging issue. Therefore, the development of catalytic asymmetric reactions involving in situ generated o-QMs has absorbed great attention from the chemists. The key to develop such reactions is to exploit easily available and stable precursors of o-QMs. Ortho-hydroxybenzyl alcohols are a kind of o-QM precursors with unique advantages. Hence, the catalytic asymmetric [4+n] cycloadditions, tandem cyclizations and nucleophilic additions of o-hydroxybenzyl alcohols have developed very rapidly in recent years, which have become efficient strategies for the synthesis of chiral oxygen-containing heterocycles and arylmethane derivatives. The catalytic asymmetric reactions involving o-hydroxybenzyl alcohols are summarized, which will open a new window for the design of new type of o-hydroxybenzyl alcohols and their involved catalytic asymmetric reactions.
