New asymmetric conjugate reduction of β,β-disubstituted α,β-unsaturated ketones and esters was accomplished with alkoxylhydrosilanes in the presence of chiral rhodium(2,6-bisoxazolinylphenyl) complexes in high yields and high enantioselectivity. (E)-4-Phenyl-3-penten-2- one and (E)-4-phenyl-4-isopropyl-3-penten-2-one were readily reduced at 60°C in 95% ee and 98 % ee, respectively, by 1 mol % of catalyst loading. (EtO) 2MeSiH proved to be the best hydrogen donor of choice. tert-Butyl (E)-β-methylcinnamate and β-isopropylcinnamate could also be reduced to the corresponding dihydrocinnamate derivatives up to 98% ee.

Synthetic routes to α,α-disubstituted allylamines have been examined. Racemic compounds were conveniently prepared by thermal Overman rearrangements of primary allylic alcohols with trisubstituted double bonds, but rearrangement of these substrates using
