Conjugate addition of Grignard reagents to α,β-unsaturated esters is one of the most convergent strategies for the construction of C–C bonds. Our group has previously developed a highly efficient CuI-Tol-BINAP-catalyzed asymmetric conjugate using Grignard reagents. The absolute stereochemistry of th...
