Abstract
A new strategy for the rhodium-catalyzed enantioselective hydroacylation is described. This has been achieved through the merger of iminium ion catalysis and transition-metal catalysis such that asymmetric induction derives from a readily accessible, inexpensive chiral nonracemic secondary amine catalyst rather than a chiral nonracemic phosphine as is typical of conventional asymmetric hydroacylation methods.
