A Palladium/Chiral Amine Co‐catalyzed Enantioselective Dynamic Cascade Reaction: Synthesis of Polysubstituted Carbocycles with a Quaternary Carbon Stereocenter

Abstract

Polysubstituted 5- and 6-membered carbocycles were synthesized by the title reaction. The one-pot dynamic relay process generates four new stereocenters, including a quaternary carbon center, in a highly enantioselective fashion (99.5:0.5→99:0.5 e.r.) by using a simple combination of palladium and chiral amine co-catalysts.
