Catalytic Enantioselective Allylation of Imines and Trifluoroketones Using New and Underutilized Organoboron Reagents

Thesis advisor: Amir H. Hoveyda === A general method for the catalytic enantioselective addition of silylallenes to phosphinoyl aldimines has been developed. Reactions are promoted in the presence of 5.0 mol% of an N–heterocyclic carbene–copper complex and a silyl-protected propargyl boron reagent....
