Abstract
We report herein a regiodivergent and enantioselective allyl addition to ketones with allenylsilanes through copper catalysis. With the combination of CuOAc, a Josiphos-type bidentate phosphine ligand and PhSiH3 , allyl addition to a variety of ketones furnishes branched products in excellent enantioselectivities. The regioselectivity is completely reversed by employing the P-stereogenic ligand BenzP*, affording the linear products with excellent enantioselectivities and good Z-selectivities. The linear Z-product could be converted to E-product via a catalytic geometric isomerization of the Z-alkene group. The silyl group in the products could provide a handle for downstream elaboration.
