Abstract
A broad range of highly enantioenriched 2-acylimidazoles are synthesized by palladium-catalyzed decarboxylative asymmetric allylic alkylation (DAAA) of 2-imidazolo-substituted enol carbonates. The enantioenriched 2-acylimidazole products can easily be converted to the corresponding carboxylic acid, ester, amide, and ketone derivatives with complete retention of the enantiopurity. The synthetic utility of this new method is demonstrated in the short, efficient synthesis of cetiedil.
