The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

Lewis acid platinum and palladium complexes of (S)-Me2-CATPHOS catalyze the carbonyl-ene reaction between allylbenzene derivatives and ethyl trifluoropyruvate to give the expected a-hydroxy esters with ee’s up to 97% while the corresponding reaction involving 2-allylfuran and thiophene were exclusively selective for Friedel-Crafts-type reactivity and gave the corresponding 2-hydroxy-trifluoromethyl ethyl esters in good yield and moderate to good enantioselectivity.
