cis-Enals in N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed reactions : distinct stereoselectivity and reactivity
The first successful generation of cis-homoenolate equivalents from cis-enals under the catalysis of N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) has been realized. The cis-homoenolate intermediates undergo effective reactions with α,β-unsaturated imines to afford chiral cyclic ketone products. Compared to the tr...

| Summary: | The first successful generation of cis-homoenolate equivalents from cis-enals under the catalysis of N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) has been realized. The cis-homoenolate intermediates undergo effective reactions with α,β-unsaturated imines to afford chiral cyclic ketone products. Compared to the trans-enals, cis-enals show different stereoselectivities and new reactivity patterns. |
