Abstract
Abstract The reaction of 2,3-dihydrofuran with alkenyl triflates in benzene or toluene in the presence of 1,8-bis(dimethylamino)naphthalene and a catalytic amount of Pd{( R )-BINAP)} 2 gave optically active 2-alkenyl-2,3-dihydrofurans in high enantioselectivities (96-87% ee). Under similar reaction conditions, l-(methoxycarbonyl)-2-pyrroline was alkenylated in > 99-96% ee.
