Organocatalytic peroxy-asymmetric allylic alkylation

Abstract

The peroxy-asymmetric allylic alkylation of hydroperoxyalkanes with Morita–Baylis–Hillman carbonates was catalysed by modified cinchona alkaloids (up to 93% ee), from which chiral α-methylene-β-hydroxy esters could be efficiently derived.
