title: Highly regio- and enantioselective palladium-catalyzed allylic alkylation and amination of dienyl esters with 1,1'-P,N-ferrocene ligands.
abstract: [reaction, structure: see text] Pd-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation of dienyl acetates 1 and amination of allyl acetates 2 provides the corresponding chiral products in high regio- and enantioselectivities using 1,1'-P,N-ferrocenes L1a and L2d as ligands, respectively.
