title: Ir-catalyzed regio- and enantioselective decarboxylative allylic alkylations.
abstract: [Ir(COD)Cl]2/phosphoramidite ligand 1a was found to be an efficient catalytic system for the highly regio- and enantioselective decarboxylative alkylation of gamma-substituted allyl beta-ketocarboxylates, affording the branched products with up to >99/1 branched-linear ratio and 96% ee.
