Enantioselective Rh(I)-Catalyzed Conjugate Alkynylation of 5-Benzylidene Meldrum’s Acid with TMS-acetylene
The Rh-catalyzed conjugate addition of TMS-acetylene to alkylidene Meldrum’s acids was developed. Exceptional ee’s and yields were attained using chiral 3,5-Xylyl-BIPHEP ligand. The scope of the reaction was also shown to be very broad with functionalities including phenol, silyl ether, and boronate...
