Title: Asymmetric allylic alkylation of ketone enolates: an asymmetric Claisen surrogate. Author: Burger EC, Tunge JA. Journal: Org Lett; 2004 Oct 28; 6(22):4113-5. PubMed ID: 15496112. Abstract: [reaction: see text] The combination of catalytic palladium(0) and Trost ligand provides an effective catalyst for the rearrangement of allyl beta-ketoesters. The mechanism of the transformation involves formation of pi-allyl palladium intermediates which undergo enantioselective attack by ketone enolates. Decarboxylation of beta-ketocarboxylates allows regiospecific generation of enolates under extremely mild conditions.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
