Synergistic Lewis base and anion-binding catalysis for the enantioselective vinylogous addition of deconjugated butenolides to allenoates

Abstract

An enantioselective vinylogous umpolung addition of deconjugated butenolides to allenoates has been developed for the first time with the help of synergistic combination of an achiral phosphine and a chiral squaramide, and represents the first example of a catalytic enantioselective Cγ–Cγ bond formation between two different carbonyl partners.
