Iridium-catalyzed reductive allylation of esters
The catalytic reductive transformation of carboxylic esters into α-branched ethers is described. The procedure pivots on the chemoselective iridium-catalyzed hydrosilylation of ester and lactone functionality to afford a silyl acetal intermediate. Upon treatment with a Lewis acid, these hemilabile i...
