✦ Synopsis
Chiral copper complexes of 2,2'-binaphthyl-based phosphorus amidites are shown to be highly effective catalysts for the conjugate addition of dialkylzine reagents to vinyloxiranes. The corresponding allylic alcohol reaction products (SN2'-pathway) were obtained with moderate to high regioselectivity. Both direct-(SN2-pathway) and conjugate-opening addition (SN2'-pathway) seem to proceed with complete anti stereoselectivity. The enantiuseleetivity of these addition reactions according to a kinetic resolution protocol turned out to be high (>90% ee) with 1,3-cyclohexadiene and 1,3-cycloheptadiene monoepoxides.
