Asymmetric intramolecular C_H insertions of aryldiazoacetates.
[reaction: see text] The enantioselectivity of Rh(2)(S-DOSP)(4) catalyzed C-H insertion of aryldiazoacetates is very dependent on the site of the C-H insertion. The highest enantioselectivity is obtained for insertion into methine C-H bonds.
