Copper(I) catalyzed regioselective asymmetric alkoxyamination of aryl enamide derivatives
Abstract
The copper(I) catalyzed reaction of an enamide with an iminoiodane, in the presence of an alcohol, triggers the direct alkoxyamination of the double bond. This transformation represents a straightforward access to α-amino aminals in a completely regio- and diastereoselective manner. Use of a chiral Box ligand allows this reaction to be carried out in an enantioselective fashion.
