PALLADIUM-CATALYZED ASYMMETRIC (HETERO)ARYLATION AND VINYLATION OF KETONE ENOLATES TO PRODUCE TERTIARY STEREOCENTERS AT ALPHA(α)-POSITION

摘要

The invention relates to new ligands that are used in a palladium source catalyst system and in palladium catalyzed method for asymmetric α-(hetero)arylation and a-vinylation of ketones. The invention further relates to a process for preparing an asymmetric α-(hetero)arylated or a-vinylated ketone which comprises reacting the tin enolate of the ketone in the presence of catalyst system comprising a ligand of the invention and palladium source. By means of the ligands and process of the invention a stereogenic center in position a of the ketone is established with high enantiomeric excess.
