Enantioselective γ-Alkylation of α,β-Unsaturated Malonates and Ketoesters by a Sequential Ir-Catalyzed Asymmetric Allylic Alkylation/Cope Rearrangement

Abstract

A catalytic, enantioselective γ-alkylation of α,β-unsaturated malonates and ketoesters is reported. This strategy entails a highly regio- and enantioselective iridium-catalyzed α-alkylation of an extended enolate, and a subsequent translocation of chirality to the γ-position via a Cope rearrangement.
