Abstract:A carbonyl‐assisted asymmetric 1,2‐migratory allylation through in situ generation of vicinal tetrasubstituted stereocenters is reported to access enantiopure α‐amino ketones, and amino‐alcohols with excellent yields and diastereoselectivities. In a remarkable divergence, despite having higher steric hindrance, the allylation exclusively occurs on ketones over imines in the first step, followed by a face‐selective 1,2‐allyl transfer, thus highlighting an exciting interplay between two distinct electrophiles.
