Popis: | Catalytic transformations of α-amino C–H bonds to afford valuable enantiomerically enriched α-substituted amines, entities that are prevalent in pharmaceuticals and bioactive natural products, have been developed. Typically, such processes are carried out under oxidative conditions, and require precious metal-based catalysts. Here, we disclose a strategy for enantioselective union of N-alkylamines and α,β-unsaturated compounds, performed under redox-neutral conditions, and promoted through concerted action of seemingly competitive Lewis acids, B(C(6)F(5))(3) and a chiral Mg–PyBOX complex. Thus, a wide variety of β-amino carbonyl compounds may be synthesized, with complete atom economy, through stereoselective reaction of an in situ generated enantiomerically enriched Mg-enolate and an appropriate electrophile. |
