Catalytic Enantioselective Decarboxylative Protonation

Abstract

We report a highly enantioselective, general catalytic system for the facile synthesis of tertiary stereocenters by protonation adjacent to cyclic ketones. The method relies on catalytic decarboxylative protonation of readily accessible racemic quaternary β-ketoesters. A range of substituted cycloalkanone compounds can be accessed through this process with high levels of enantioselectivity.
