Abstract

An enantioselective copper-catalyzed tandem cross-coupling/alkynylogous aldol reaction has been developed. The tetrasubstituted allenoates containing both central and axial chirality have been obtained in moderate to good yields and excellent enantio- and diastereoselectivity. Distinct from the previous use of Cu(I) salts, this protocol features the use of copper(II) salts as a catalytic precursor in this asymmetric cross-coupling reaction.
