Abstract
In this paper we introduce a simple, new system for promoting enantioselective catalytic allylation of aldehydes. Chiral bis(oxazalinyl) zinc complexes have been shown to catalyze the allylation of aldehydes in good yield when allyl tributyltin is used as the nucleophile. The values of e.e. obtained for this reaction are in the range of 40–46%. A number of different reaction conditions were screened and the results obtained with other metal systems are also reported.
