Abstract
In the presence of a catalytic amount of chiral copper(i) or rhodium(i i) compounds the enantioselective addition of a carbenoid, derived fro m ethyl diazoacetate, to chalcogen atoms of aryl cinnamyl chalcogenide s affords a diastereoisomeric mixture of ethyl 2-arylchalcogeno-3-phen ylpent-4-enoates via [2,3]sigmatropic rearrangement of the intermediat e chalcogen ylide with up to 41% ee.
