摘要

An efficient asymmetric ring opening reaction of azabenzonorbornadienes with various phenols using Palladium/(R,R)-DIOP complex has been demonstrated, the reaction afforded the corresponding products in excellent yields (80–95%) with moderate enantioselectivities (50–64% ees). The syn-configuration of the product was codnfirmed by the single X-ray crystallography.
