Several new chiral TADDOL-derived phosphoric acids bearing two hydroxyl groups have been successfully synthesized via highly regioselective 2,3-cyclosulfitation as asymmetric catalysts for Biginelli-like reaction. The obtained results clearly demonstrated that these catalysts are able to effectively catalyze the reactions with good to excellent enantioselectivities. A control experiment indicated that two hydroxyl groups are indispensable for high enantioselectivity of the Biginelli-like reaction.
