Asymmetric allylic substitution of Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) carbonates with less-nucleophilic phenols mediated by nucleophilic amine catalysis was successfully developed. A variety of substituted aryl allyl ethers were afforded with moderate to high yields with excellent enantioselectivities. The chiral MBH alcohol could be easily accessed from the corresponding aryl allyl ether.
通过亲核胺催化成功实现了用亲核性较弱的酚对Morita-Baylis-Hillman(MBH)碳酸酯进行不对称烯丙基取代反应。以中等至高产率得到了各种取代的芳基烯丙基醚,且对映选择性优异。相应的芳基烯丙基醚可轻松制得手性MBH醇。
