Abstract
The development of sustainable and novel strategies for constructing complex chiral molecules with versatile transformation potential is a long-term pursuit in the chemistry community. We report a copper(I)-catalyzed enyne addition to aldehydes under proton-transfer conditions, unlike previous examples which were limited to the use of preformed reactive nucleophiles containing allylic heteroatoms or electron-withdrawing groups. This protocol provides an efficient platform for installing chiral allylic alcohol moieties with a broad substrate scope and high regio-, stereo-, and enantioselectivity.
期刊介绍:
Organic Letters invites original reports of fundamental research in all branches of the theory and practice of organic, physical organic, organometallic,medicinal, and bioorganic chemistry. Organic Letters provides rapid disclosure of the key elements of significant studies that are of interest to a large portion of the organic community. In selecting manuscripts for publication, the Editors place emphasis on the originality, quality and wide interest of the work. Authors should provide enough background information to place the new disclosure in context and to justify the rapid publication format. Back-to-back Letters will be considered. Full details should be reserved for an Article, which should appear in due course.
