Iridium-catalyzed asymmetric ring-openingreactions of oxabicyclic alkenes with various aliphatic and aromatic secondaryamines are reported for the first time. The reaction gave the corresponding trans-1,2-dihydronaphthalenol derivatives in good yields with moderate enantioselectivities in the presence of 2.5 mol % [Ir(COD)Cl](2) and 5 mol % bisphosphine ligand (S)-p-Tol-BINAP. The trans-configuration

We have explored a new iridium-catalyzed ring-openingreaction of oxabenzonorbornadienes with a variety of primary aromatic amine or N-substituted piperazine nucleophiles, affording the corresponding products in excellent yields (up to 99%) with moderate enantioselectivity (25−81% ee). The trans configuration of product 2d was confirmed by X-ray crystallography.
