time, hetero(aryl) Grignardreagents to promote selective dicarbofunctionalization of enol silyl ethers. From a broader perspective, this work expands the synthetic utility of enol silyl ethers and establishes bisphosphine–iron catalysis as enabling technology capable of orchestrating selective C–C bond formations with short-lived α-silyloxy radicals with practical implications towards sustainable chemical
catalytic methods that enable highlystereoselective dicarbofunctionalization of alkenes are lacking. Herein, we report the use of readily available chiral vinyl oxazolidinones as effective chiral radical lynchpins to enable practical and diastereoselective (up to 1:78 dr) Fe-catalyzed dicarbofunctionalization with fluoroalkyl halides and hetero(aryl) Grignard reagents. Experimental and computational
strategy for the rapid construction and diversification of compounds. In this vein, multicomponent cross-coupling reactions (MC-CCR) can provide an efficient synthetic route to build molecular complexity. In this work, we report the first iron-catalyzed three-component fluoroalkylarylation of enamides via selective formation and trapping of α-amide radicals under mild conditions and fast reaction times
