The effect of N-substituent on the performance of chiral N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed kinetic resolution using alpha-hydroxyamides was investigated. N-tert-Butyl-alpha-hydroxyamides exhibited the best performance and achieved enantioselective acylation with alpha-bromo aldehyde through chiral N-heterocyclic carbene/carboxylate anion co-catalysis, leading to a high selectivity factor up to 128.
