Lewis acid-catalyzed asymmetric reactions of β,γ-unsaturated 2-acyl imidazoles

The investigation of reactivity of β,γ-unsaturated carbonyl compounds is of great synthetic value, especially in asymmetric transformations. Here, the authors report a catalytic asymmetric tandem isomerization/α-Michael addition of β,γ-unsaturated 2-acyl imidazoles in presence of chiral N,N′-dioxide...
