Abstract

We have demonstrated that bidentate Lewis base catalysts can be constructed based on the Cinchona alkaloid structure that promote highly stereoselective reactions of allyl- and crotyltrichlorosilane with aromatic as well as aliphatic aldehydes (90–99% ee, >98% diastereoselectivity). The catalysts are available in a one-pot procedure in >70% yield from cheap starting materials and promote the allylation reactions at ambient temperature. Gram scale reactions with catalyst recovery and reuse showcased the practicality of the catalytic system.
