A ferrocenium boronic acid salt activates allylic alcohols to generate transient carbocations that react with in situ-generated chiral enamines from branched aldehydes. The optimized conditions afford the desired acyclic products embedding a methyl-aryl quaternary carbon center with up to 90% yield and 97:3 enantiomeric ratio, with only water as the byproduct. This noble-metal-free method complements
二茂铁硼酸盐活化
烯丙醇以产生瞬时碳阳离子,该碳阳离子与从支化醛原位生成的手性烯胺反应。优化的条件提供了嵌入甲基-芳基季碳中心的所需无环产物,产率高达 90%,对映体比为 97:3,只有
水作为副产物。这种不含贵
金属的方法补充了与碳卤键和其他敏感官能团不兼容的替代方法。
