Abstract

Tri without fail: The highly diastereoselective addition of vinylaluminum reagents, generated in situ from the zirconium-catalyzed carboalumination of various alkynes and Me3Al, to the easily accessible (2S,5R,6R)-5,6-dimethyl-[1,4]dioxane-2-carbaldehyde (1 b) afforded the corresponding trisubstituted allylic alcohols, and a subsequent Overman reaction yielded allylic amines that contain chiral quaternary carbon stereocenters.
