We report a method for the highly enantioselective CuH-catalyzed allylation of ketones that employs terminal allenes as allylmetal surrogates. Ketones and allenes bearing diverse and sensitive functional groups are efficiently coupled with high stereoselectivity and exclusive branched regioselectivity. In stoichiometric experiments, each elementary step of the proposed hydrocupration-addition-metathesis mechanism can be followed by NMR spectroscopy.
我们报告了一种使用末端丙二烯作为烯丙基金属替代物的高度对映选择性 CuH 催化酮的烯丙基化的方法。带有各种敏感官能团的酮和丙二烯可以高效偶联,具有高立体选择性和专一地支化区域选择性。在计量实验中,所提出的水合加成-复分解机理的每个基本步骤都可以通过 NMR 光谱进行跟踪。
