Abstract
The combination of Bi(OAc)3 and a chiral phosphoric acid catalyzes a highly efficient asymmetric 1,2-allylation reaction of β,γ-unsaturated α-ketoesters under mild conditions. A subsequent anionic oxy-Cope rearrangement achieves an asymmetric formal 1,4-allylation reaction in a one-pot process.
