Asymmetric cinnamylation of N-tert-butanesulfinyl imines with cinnamyl acetates: total syntheses of (+)-lycoricidine and (+)-7-deoxypancratistatin

Article abstract of DOI:10.1039/c7cc00108h

Highly diastereoselective palladium catalyzed cinnamylation of N-tert-butanesulfinyl imines with cinnamyl acetates has been established to provide enantioenriched β-aryl homoallylic amines. The synthetic application of this stragety has been successfully
