Abstract
A class of bipyridyl alcohol ligands has been developed. A catalyst synthesized using a chromium(II)-ligand promotes the enantioselective Nozaki–Hiyama–Kishi (NHK) allylation of aldehydes and ketones with allylic halides. The allylation of various aromatic, α,β-unsaturated, and aliphatic aldehydes and ketones produces the desired homoallylic alcohols in satisfactory yields (up to 98%) and high enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee). The present method can be applied widely and affords an efficient means of obtaining chiral homoallylic alcohols.
