Optically active vinylchroman (1) was synthesized from a corresponding
allyl carbonate (2) by catalytic and asymmetric allylic substitution
with palladium complexes of chiral bisphosphine Ligands, The reactivit
y and selectivity of the various chiral bisphosphine-palladium complex
es were investigated.
