摘要
The recent booming of gold catalysis has demonstrated that unprecedented transformations can be realized in a highly selective manner. Moreover, due to the growing availability of chiral organic ligands, gold-catalysis can be considered as one of most dynamic hot spots in asymmetric synthesis. However, in this context, the use of non-activated olefinic C-C double bonds is still largely unexplored due to the intrinsic inertness of C=C (respect to allenes and alkynes) in taking part in nucleophilic additions assisted by pi-electrophilic activations. Allylic alcohols have been demonstrated to be feasible "surrogates" of non-activated alkenes for the enantioselective allylic alkylation of indoles catalyzed by chiral gold(I) complexes. In this investigation, a full account addressing efficiency and substrate scope of such a process is presented. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
