An asymmetric organocatalytic approach towards allylic amines and beta-keto amino compounds.
The enantioselective organocatalysed addition of beta-keto benzothiazolesulfones to N-Boc-protected imines, leading to intermediates easily transformed into optically active allylic amines or beta-keto amino compounds, is presented.
