Abstract
A direct asymmetric alkynylation of ketones with new chiral CCN Rh catalysts containing N-heterocyclic carbene and oxazoline hybrid ligands is described. The catalytic reaction of fluoroalkyl-substituted ketones, ArCOCF2 X (X=F, Cl, H), with aromatic and aliphatic alkynes yielded the corresponding chiral propargyl alcohols with high enantioselectivity. Control and kinetic experiments suggested a bis(alkynyl) Rh intermediate as the active species for the C-C bond-forming step.
