Enantioselective α-Vinylation of Aldehydes via the Synergistic Combination of Copper and Amine Catalysis
摘要:
The enantioselective alpha-vinylation of aldehydes using vinyl iodonium triflate salts has been accomplished via the synergistic combination of copper and chiral amine catalysis. These mild catalytic conditions provide a direct route for the enantioselective construction of enolizable alpha-formyl vinylic stereocenters without racemization or olefin transposition. These high-value coupling adducts are readily converted into a variety of useful olefin synthons.
