A broadly useful catalytic enantioselective synthesis of branched allylicesters from prochiral (Z)-2-alkene-1-ols has been developed. The starting allylicalcohol is converted to its trichloroacetimidate intermediate by reaction with trichloroacetonitrile, either in situ or in a separate step, and this intermediate undergoes clean enantioselective S(N)2' substitution with a variety of carboxylic acids
