A copper(i)-catalysed asymmetric allylic reduction enables a regio- and stereoselective transfer of a hydride nucleophile in an SN2′-fashion onto allylic bromides. This transformation represents a conceptually orthogonal approach to allylic substitution reactions with carbon nucleophiles. A copper(i) complex based upon a chiral N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligand allows for stereoselectivity reaching 99% ee. The catalyst enables a stereoconvergent reaction irrespective of the double bond configuration of the starting materials.

The copper(I)-catalysed SN2'-type allylic substitution of E-3-aryl-allyl chlorides (cinnamyl chlorides) using Grignard reagents represents a powerful method for the synthesis of compounds carrying a benzylic stereocentre. By screening a small library of modular chiral phosphine-phosphite ligands a new copper(I)-based catalyst system was identified which allows the performance of such reactions with exceptional high degrees of regio- and enantioselectivity. Best results were obtained using TADDOLderived ligands (3 mol%), copper(I) bromide?dimethyl sulfide (CuBr?SMe2) (2.5 mol%) and methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) as a solvent. Various (1- alkyl-allyl)benzene derivatives were prepared with up to 99% ee (GC) in isolated yields of up to 99%. In most cases the product contained less than 3% of the linear regioisomer (except for ortho-substituted substrates). Both electron-rich and electron-deficient cinnamyl chlorides were successfully employed. The absolute configuration of the products was assigned by comparison of experimental and calculated CD spectra. The substrates were prepared from the corresponding alcohols by reaction with thionyl chloride. Initially formed mixtures of regioisomeric allylic chlorides were homogenised by treatment with CuBr?SMe2 (2.5 mol%) in the presence of triphenyl phosphine (PPh3) (3 mol%) in MTBE at low temperature to give the pure linear isomers. In reactions with methylmagnesium bromide (MeMgBr) an ortho-diphenylphosphanyl-arylphosphite ligand with an additional phenyl substituent in ortho'-position at the aryl backbone proved to be superior. In contrast, best results were obtained in the case of higher alkyl Grignard reagents (such as ethyl-, n-butyl-, isopropyl-, and 3-butenylmagnesium bromides) with a related ligand carrying an isopropyl substituent in ortho'-position. The method was tested on a multimmol scale and is suited for application in natural product synthesis.
