Abstract

A practically feasible, diastereoselective conjugate addition-elimination reaction of a chiral nickel(II) complex of glycine 1 with allylic acetates 2 is described. The reaction pathway was successfully controlled, and the desired formation of a carbon-carbon bond was exclusively obtained with high diastereoselectivity. This reaction is an attractive route for the asymmetric synthesis of previously unavailable chainlike glutamic acid derivatives.

Key words

nickel(II) complex - asymmetric synthesis - glutamic acid - amino acids
