The role of an aromatic group in remote chiral induction during conjugate addition of α-sulfonylallylic carbanions to ethyl crotonate

The impact of a remote aromatic nucleus on the stereochemical outcome of the conjugate addition of α-sulfonylallylic carbanions to an α,β-unsaturated ester was investigated. α-Regioselectivity coupled with anti-diastereoselectivity is accompanied by a prominent preference for relative configuration...
