Gold meets enamine catalysis in the enantioselective α-allylic alkylation of aldehydes with alcohols

Abstract

Synergetic gold(I)- and organo-catalysis proved to be efficient towards the intramolecular stereoselective α-allylic alkylation of aldehydes with simple primary and secondary alcohols. High diastereo- and enantioselectivity were recorded.
