Abstract

Asymmetric 1, 4-addition of arylboronic acids to (E)-methyl 2-cyano-3-arylpropenoates proceeded in the presence of a rhodium catalyst (3 mol%) coordinated with a chiral diene ligand,(R, R)-Ph-bod*, to give high yields of the corresponding methyl 3, 3-diaryl-2- cyanopropanoates with high enantioselectivity (up to 99% ee). This catalytic asymmetric transformation was applied to the asymmetric synthesis of (R)-tolterodine.
