Copper-catalyzed enantioselective conjugate addition of Grignard reagents to α,β-unsaturated esters

(Chemical Equation Presented) Stable dinuclear Cu complexes have been used to catalyze the conjugate addition of inexpensive and readily available Grignard reagents to acyclic α,β-unsaturated esters. The method provides the correspending β-substituted optically active esters in high yields and with excellent enantioselectivities (see scheme). R3 = cyclohexyl, R 4 = Ph or R3 = Ph, R4 = cyclohexyl.
