"Counterion-Enhanced Pd/Enamine Catalysis: Direct Asymmetric α‑Allylation of Aldehydes with Allylic Alcohols by Chiral Amines and Achiral or Racemic Phosphoric Acids";
Journal of Organic Chemistry, 86 (2021), S. 850 - 860.

We report a straightforward and efficient Pd/enamine catalytic procedure for the direct asymmetric α-allylation of branched aldehydes. The use of simple chiral amines and easily prepared achiral or racemic phosphoric acids, together with a suitable Pd-source resulted in a highly active and enantioselective catalyst system for the allylation of various α-branched aldehydes with different allylic alcohols. The reported procedure could provide an easy access to both product antipodes. Furthermore, two possible orthogonal derivatizations of the enantioenriched aldehydes were performed without any decrease in enantioselectivity.
