A Convenient, One-Step Synthesis of Optically Active Tertiary Aminonaphthol and Its Applications in the Highly Enantioselective Alkenylations of Aldehydes

Jian‐Xin Ji, Liqin Qiu, Chiu Wing Yip, Albert S. C. Chan

Abstract

Optically active tertiary aminonaphthol 1 was obtained by a new, convenient procedure and was found to catalyze the enantioselective alkenylation of various aldehydes with high ee values, which provides a practical method for the synthesis of chiral (E)- allyl alcohols.
