As an advance in hydrofunctionalization, we herein report that alcohols add to 1,3-dienes with high regio- and enantioselectivity. Using Ni-DuPhos, we access enantioenriched allylic ethers. Through the choice of solvent-free conditions, we control the reversibility of C-O bond formation. This work showcases a rare example of methanol as a reagent in asymmetric synthesis.
作为氢官能化领域的一项进展,我们在此报告醇类能够以高区域选择性和对映选择性加成到1,3-二烯上。使用镍-双膦配体(Ni-DuPhos),我们能够得到对映体富集的烯丙基醚。通过选择无溶剂条件,我们控制了碳-氧键形成的可逆性。这项工作展示了甲醇作为不对称合成试剂的一个罕见实例。
