Abstract

AbstractA palladium‐catalyzed enantioselective reductive Heck reaction of enones using monodentate phosphoramidite ligands is described. α,α,α’,α’‐tetraaryl‐1,3‐dioxolane‐4,5‐dimethanol (TADDOL)‐based phosphoramidites with palladium(II) acetate, and N‐methyl dicyclohexylamine as reducing agent gives the reductive Heck product in high yields and enantioselectivities of up to 90 %. The solvent plays an important role and in diethyl carbonate, the chemo‐ and enantioselectivity appeared to be the highest.
