Synthesis of amino acid derivatives via enantio- and diastereoselective Pd-catalyzed allylic substitutions with a non-stabilized enolate as nucleophile†
Abstract
Diastereomer ratios of up to 95∶5 and enantiomeric excesses of up to 95% were achieved in Pd-catalyzed asymmetric allylic substitutions with zinc enolates of glycine
