Enantioselective catalysis of hetero Diels-Alder reaction and diethylzinc addition using a single catalyst.
[reaction: see text] Integration of two asymmetric reactions in one pot with the promotion of a single catalyst has been achieved in high efficiency and excellent stereoselectivity for hetero Diels-Alder reaction of Danishefsky's diene and diethylzinc addition to aldehydes. The strategy described in the present work demonstrated the ability of a single catalyst to promote two distinct enantioselective reactions in one pot.
