Chiral aldehyde-nickel dual catalysis enables asymmetric α−propargylation of amino acids and stereodivergent synthesis of NP25302

The combination of transition metal catalysis and organocatalysis can afford both good reactivity and selectivity. Here, the authors present an α − propargylation of N-unprotected amino acid esters with propargylic alcohol derivatives via dual nickel and chiral aldehyde catalysis.
