Ir(I)-catalyzed intermolecular allylic amidation of ethyl allyl carbonates with soft nitrogen nucleophiles under completely 'salt-free' conditions is described. A combination of [Ir(COD)Cl]2, a chiral phosphoramidite ligand L*, and DBU as a base in THF effects the reaction. The reaction appears to be quite general, accommodating a wide variety of R-groups and soft nitrogen nucleophiles, and proceeds with excellent regio- and enantioselectivities to afford the branched N-protected allylic amines. The developed reaction was conveniently utilized in the asymmetric synthesis of N-Boc protected α- and β-amino acids as well as (-)-cytoxazone.

A new and efficient enantioselective synthesis of allylamines and N-Boc-β-amino acids has been developed.Starting from enantiomerically enriched N-diphenylmethyl-3-amino-1,2-diols, allylamines are easily obtained by a Corey-Hopkins deoxygenative protocol.After a change in the nitrogen protecting group, the resulting N-Boc allylamines are converted into β-amino acids by hydroboration with 9-BBN followed by oxidation with PDC in DMF.
