Abstract

The palladium-catalyzed regio- and enantioselective allylic amination of trifluoromethyl group substituted racemic and unsymmetrical 1,3-disubstituted allylic esters has been accomplished. The enantioselective formation of the α-type allylic amines was attained by the dynamic kinetic asymmetric transformation (DYKAT).
