Abstract
Formation of (S)-4-tert-butylcyclohex-1-enyl nonaflate 4 by reaction with nonafluorobutanesulfonyl fluoride was found to be highly enantioselective both from (S)-4-tert-butyl-1-(trimethyl-siloxy)cyclohexene 3 and from the corresponding lithium enolate 2. The latter was generated by kinetic deprotonation of 4-tert-butylcyclohexanone 1 with lithium (R,R′)-bis(1-phenylethyl)amide as enantiopure base. A number of functionalized 2-(4-tert-butylcyclohex-1-enyl)alkenes 6 were prepared with roughly 90% enantiomeric excess from trimethylsilyl enol ether 3 using a one-pot nonaflation/Heck reaction sequence.
