Atroposelective construction of axially chiral enamides via N -allylic alkylation

Herein, we report the catalytic asymmetric synthesis of a unique family of axially chiral enamides in good yields with excellent enantioselectivities under mild conditions.

Summary:Herein, we report the catalytic asymmetric synthesis of a unique family of axially chiral enamides in good yields with excellent enantioselectivities under mild conditions. These new axially chiral compounds feature a flexible skeleton and a high degree of rotational freedom, which raises difficulties for enantiocontrol. A mechanism model is proposed to interpret the stereoselectivity, in which both the steric difference of the ortho substituents and the π–π stacking interaction may contribute to the stereo-control.
