Cu-Catalyzed dynamic kinetic asymmetric allylation enabled enantioselective assembly of sterically congested triaryl tertiary alcohols
The authors present a copper-catalyzed dynamic kinetic asymmetric allylation of racemic α,β,β-triarylethanones, providing efficient access to a diverse range of chiral α,β,β-triaryl tertiary alcohols with robust enantioselectivity and diastereoselectivity.
