Abstract
We report herein the synthesis of novel chiral S,N‐heterobidentate thiourea‐oxazoline ligands and their application to palladium‐catalyzed enantioselective bis(methoxycarbonylation)s of terminal olefins under mild conditions. Copper salts were found to play multiple roles in this reaction. Substituted 2‐phenylsuccinates were obtained in >90% yield and up to 84% ee under optimized conditions.
