Abstract
The first examples of an enantioselective [1,2] silicon rearrangement are reported. This novel synthetic method lead to the formation of chi ral alpha-substituted benzylamines with an alpha-silyl group. In the p rocedure, N-Silyl-protected N-Boc benzylamines are subjected to enanti oselective deprotonation using the chiral complex (-) sparteine.s-Buli to generate chiral benzyllithium intermediates that undergo a [1,2] s ilicon shift.
