The methylation of the lithium dienolate generated from (E)-α,β-olefinic amide with Katsuki’s chiral auxiliary affords the α-methylated β,γ-enamide in an exceptionally high Z-selectivity (99%) over the terminal olefinic bond along with 99% de at the α-chiral center. The origin of the high Z-selectivity is discussed.
用 Katsuki 的手性助剂对 (E)-α,β-烯烃酰胺生成的二烯酸
锂进行甲基化,可得到α-甲基化的 β,γ-烯酰胺,在末端烯烃键上具有极高的 Z 选择性(99%),同时在 α-手性中心具有 99% 的 de。本文讨论了高 Z 选择性的来源。
