Abstract
An effective asymmetric α-phenylation of methyl ketones with triphenylaluminium in the presence of (+)-benzopyranoisoxazolidine has been developed. The reaction proceeds via the in situ formation of a chiral N-alkoxyenamine and the subsequent diastereoselective nucleophilic phenylation to provide α-phenylated products in moderate to good yields, with high enantioselectivities.
