Abstract

A chiral Lewis acid-catalyzed enantioselective Friedel-Crafts furan alkylation with in situ-generated o-quinone methides has been developed. In the presence of a chiral oxazaborolidinium ion catalyst, the reaction proceeded in high yield (up to 99%) with excellent enantioselectivity (up to >99% ee).
