Enantioselective Synthesis of CF3S-Containing Compounds via Ir-Catalyzed Allylic Alkylations of CF3S-Substituted Functionalized Methylene Derivatives.

Enantioselective Ir-catalyzed allylic alkylations of CF3S-substituted functionalized methylene derivatives are established under mild conditions. This method provides the CF3S-containing branched products in good to high yields with high regio- and enantioselectivities.
