Asymmetric Vinylogous Aldol-type Reactions of Aldehydes with Allyl Phosphonate and Sulfone

Summary: Two catalytic asymmetric vinylogous aldol-type reactions of aldehydes with allyl phosphonate and allyl sulfone have been uncovered in good to high yields for the first time. The bulky ligand—(R)-DTBM-SEGPHOS—was found to be the key to perfectly control both regio- and enantioselectivities. Transformations of the vinylogous products (including Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons and Julia olefinations) were successfully realized by virtue of the phosphonate and sulfone moieties. Moreover, the present methodology was successfully applied in the asymmetric synthesis of natural products.: Chemistry; Organic Synthesis; Stereochemistry Subject Areas: Chemistry, Organic Synthesis, Stereochemistry
