Abstract

A highly enantioselective Cu-catalyzed addition of Grignard reagents to acyclic aliphatic enones is described. In the presence of 5 mol % of CuBr.SMe2 and 6 mol % of JosiPhos diphosphine aliphatic enones react with Grignard reagents to provide beta-substituted linear ketones with high yields, regio-, and enantioselectivities.
