Abstract

Oxazoline is known as a versatile functional group in organic synthesis for the activation of substrates and for asymmetric synthesis.[1] Complexation of organic compounds having this group with transition metals may lead to the development of unique synthetic transformations,[2] but an olefin complex such as the one in Scheme 1 (M= metal)[3] has not been investigated. We report here that titanation of alkenyloxazolines proceeds nicely to ...
