Abstract
A combination of chiral hydridopalladium and enamine catalysis enables an asymmetric α-allylation of aldehydes with alkynes. The ternary catalyst system, consisting of an achiral palladium complex, a primary amine, and a chiral phosphoric acid tolerates a wide scope of α,α-disubstituted aldehydes and alkynes and provides the corresponding allylation products in high yields and with excellent levels of enantioselectivity.
