Abstract
AbstractIsomerization‐free reactions of dienyl carbonates with chelated amino acid ester enolates at –78 °C provide important information concerning the mechanism of these dienylations. The formation of regioisomeric products can be explained by competing SN2/SN2′ reactions, and the product distribution can be influenced by the proper choice of the reaction conditions. Chiral allylic substrates show a significant transfer of chirality. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2008)
