Graphical Abstract

Florierendes Fluor: Die Umsetzung eines α-Trifluormethylallylbenzoats mit Alkoholen in Gegenwart eines ortho-cyclometallierten Iridium-Katalysators führt zur Bildung von Aldehyd-Allyliridium-Intermediaten, aus denen die enantiomerenangereicherten Produkte einer anti-α-Trifluormethylallylierung entstehen. Ein identischer Satz von Produkten wird ausgehend von Aldehyden erhalten, wenn ähnliche Transferhydrierungsbedingungen mit Isopropylalkohol als terminalem Reduktionsmittel angewendet werden.
