title: Iridium(I)-catalyzed stereospecific decarboxylative allylic amidation of chiral branched benzyl allyl imidodicarboxylates.
abstract: Ir(I)-catalyzed decarboxylative allylic amidation of chiral branched benzyl allyl imidodicarboxylates has been shown to proceed with complete retention of enantiomeric purity and configuration. The transformation is stereospecific and appears to be quite general, accommodating a wide range of R groups.
