Highly Enantioselective Construction of Dihydrooxazines via Pd-Catalyzed Asymmetric Carboetherification

A straightforward synthesis of highly enantioenriched 5,6-dihydro-4H-1,2-oxazines is realized by Pd-catalyzed asymmetric carboetherification of gamma,delta-alkenyl oximes with (hetero)aryl and alkenyl halides in the presence of a commercially available bisphosphine ligand. The enantioenriched products can be facilely converted to functionalized alcohols with high fidelity of chiral transfer.
