Abstract

A novel Ni-catalyzed decarboxylative aldol reaction of β,γ-unsaturated α-ketoesters with β-ketoacids is reported. The reaction proceeds smoothly with high chemo-, regio-, and enantioselectivity. This protocol provides a convenient approach to access enantioenriched chiral tertiary alcohols.
