N,N'-Bis(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)-N,N'-ethylenetartramide: An Improved Chiral Auxiliary for the Asymmetric Allylboration Reaction

Article abstract of DOI:10.1021/jo00117a036

N,N'-Bis(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)-N,N'-ethylenetartramide (8), synthesized by a simple four-step sequence from ethylenediamine and benzylidenetartaric acid, was designed in anticipation that the derived allylboronates 9-11 would display enhanced reactivity o
