M. Murakata et al., ENANTIOSELECTIVE RADICAL-MEDIATED ALLYLATION OF ALPHA-IODODIHYDROCOUMARINS USING LEWIS-ACIDS GENERATED FROM CHIRAL SULFONAMIDES, Tetrahedron : asymmetry, 9(12), 1998, pp. 2087-2092
Enantioseletive radical-mediated allylation using chiral Lewis acids g
enerated from sulfonamides is described. Asymmetric allylation took pl
ace in 54% enantiomeric excess to form a chiral quaternary carbon cent
er with R configuration. The present reaction proceeded equally well w
ith a substoichiometric amount of a chiral Lewis acid as with a stoich
iometric amount. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
