The first catalytic enantioselective isomerization of secondary allylic alcohols to access ketones with a α-tertiary stereocenter is presented. The racemic allylic alcohol substrates can be converted to the enantioenriched ketone products in a stereoconvergent fashion. The use of commercially available catalysts and mild reaction conditions makes this an attractive method in stereoselective synthesis.

(Chemical Equation Presented) Close to perfect enantioselectivity (up to 99% ee, see scheme) is found for the formation of α-substituted ketones by the asymmetric hydrogenation of enones with an iridium-phosphinooxazoline catalyst. In an operationally simple process, both linear and cyclic substrates react well and afford the desired products in high yields. A wide variety of substituents are tolerated, thus making the method synthetically appealing.
Evaluation of a Pseudoephedrine Linker for Asymmetric Alkylations on Solid Phase

(Equation Presented) Immobilized pseudoephedrine amides have been conveniently prepared by attachment of pseudoephedrine to Merrifield resin and acylation on nitrogen. Deprotonation and alkylation of the resin bound amides proceeds smoothly. Products were cleaved from the resin to give ketones and alcohols in high enantiomeric excess and moderate to good overall yield.
