Abstract
A synergistic Pd and Cu catalysis enables stereodivergent coupling reactions between 1,3-dienes and aldimine esters with wide substrate scope and good functional group tolerance. By using different enantiomers of the two metal catalysts, all four stereoisomers of the coupling products could be accessed with high diastereo- and enantioselectivity.
