title: Asymmetric copper-catalyzed propargylic substitution reaction of propargylic acetates with enamines.
abstract: Enamines served as carbon-nucleophiles for the first time in the Cu-catalyzed asymmetric propargylic substitution reaction of propargylic acetates, providing corresponding chiral beta-ethynyl-substituted ketones in high yields and in good to high enantioselectivity.
