Organocatalytic chemoselective asymmetric N-allylic alkylation of enamides

Abstract

The first Lewis base-catalysed chemoselective asymmetric N-allylic alkylation of enamides with Morita–Baylis–Hillman carbonates has been developed, which affords multifunctional products in moderate to high enantioselectivity (up to 92% ee).
