Being selective: The catalyticallylation of α,β‐unsaturated aldehydes with allyltrichlorosilane in the presence of chiral 3,3′‐unsymmetrically substituted bis(tetrahydroisoquinoline) N,N‐dioxides was explored. The allylation of various aldehydes proceeded under mild reaction conditions (−78 °C) with high yields and enantioselectivity (see scheme). This allylation was applied in the synthesis of (

The short synthesis of a series of novel chiral N-oxideorganocatalysts and their evaluation in the asymmetricallylation reaction of aromatic and α-β-unsaturated aldehydes with allyltrichlorosilane is reported. These readily modifiable organocatalysts are the first of their kind based on the tetrahydroisoquinoline framework. The chiral homoallyl products were obtained with good chemical efficiency

Efficiency of chirality transfer in anionic oxy-Cope rearrangement depends solely on the orientational preference of the oxyanionic bond in the substrates with a single carbinol carbon chiral center. In chairlike transition-state conformations for the rearrangement of simplest substrates like anions generated from (E)-1-phenyl-1,5-hexadien-3-ol and (E)-1,5-heptadien-4-ol, the oxyanionic bond is more prone to adopt the pseudoaxial orientation. On the other hand, anions generated from (E)-2-methyl-1,5-heptadien-4-ol, (E)-5-tert-butyl-1-phenyl-1,5-hexadien-3-ol, and 4-(2'-methyl-1'-cyclohexenyl)-1-buten-3-ol undergo rearrangement via chairlike transition states in which the pseudoequatorial oxyanionic bond is favored. It can thus be surmized that there is a slight stereoelectronic preference for the pseudoaxial oxyanionic bond in the chairlike transition states for the rearrangement of substrates without steric constraints. Substitution at C5 of the basic 1,5-hexadien-3-ol framework of substrates, however, leads to 1,3-diaxial steric interaction in the chairlike transition states with pseudoaxial oxyanionic bond, and pseudoequatorial disposition of oxyanionic bond becomes more favorable.
