Allylsilanes are widely used in stereoselective organic synthesis.[1] Design and development of efficient catalytic asymmetric methods that furnish chiral allylsilanes in high enantiomeric purity would significantly expand the utility of these versatile nucleophiles. Herein, we report an efficient method for enantioselective synthesis of a range of allylsilanes by Cu-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation (AAA)[2] of Si-substituted unsaturated phosphates with dialkyl-and diarylzinc reagents [Eq.(1)]. Transformations are promoted by 1–2.5 mol% of chiral N-heterocyclic carbene based (NHC-based) catalysts and afford enantiomerically enriched allylsilanes in up to 98% ee and over 70% yield. Catalytic asymmetric reactions that afford tertiary as well as those that deliver quaternary Si-substituted carbon stereogenic centers are presented. To the best of our knowledge, this disclosure puts forth the first method for catalytic asymmetric synthesis of quaternary carbon stereogenic centers that bear a silyl group,[3, 4] as well as the first catalytic AAA that utilizes arylmetal reagents.[5]A number of protocols for catalytic enantioselective synthesis of allylsilanes have been developed. Such transformations include enantioselective couplings of 1-(silyl)-alkyl Grignard reagents with vinyl halides,[6] hydrosilylations of 1, 3-dienes,[7] silylations of allylic chlorides,[8] hydride additions to silyl-substituted allylic carbonates,[9] and silaborations of allenes.[10] These processes, all Pd-catalyzed, largely involve formation of CÀSi or CÀH bonds (with the exception of cross-coupling reactions)[11] and deliver an array of synthetically useful allylsilanes in the non-racemic form.
