Abstract
A new catalyst system for the enantioselective bromine-induced semipinacol rearrangement of cyclic allylic alcohols is described. Using the commercially available (DHQD)2Pyr catalyst the products containing an all-carbon quaternary chiral centre can be obtained in good yield and high enantioselectivity.
Key words
asymmetric catalysis - bromine - electrophilic addition - halogenation - rearrangement

16Considering Tu’s latest results¹² one reviewer questioned the role of small amounts of water in the system. We used commercially available ‘dry’ solvents stored over molecular sieves for all reactions. The deliberate addition of 5 equivalents of water to the rearrangement of 1a under standard conditions did not change the enantioselectivity. Addition of methanol (5 equiv) or molecular sieves to the reaction was detrimental for the enantioselectivity (33% and 60% ee, respectively).
