The direct heterofunctionalization of acyclic α,β‐unsaturated aldehydes with N‐acylquinolinium ions contemplating the formation of two stereocentres is studied using dienamine catalysis. This work gives some new experimental insights on the remote stereocontrol in dienamine catalysis using unbiased aliphatic systems and large electrophiles, pointing to a (Z)‐preference of the reactive configuration of the second double bond.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
