Development of a Chiral Lewis Base Catalyzed Allylation Reaction Jason Poulin Barriault Lab March 20th 2008
Presentation Outline • Generalities • Allylation/crotylation reactions • Lewis base catalysis (initial trials) • Nonlinear effects in asymmetric synthesis • Improved catalyst system • Conclusion
Definitions • Lewis Acid: Employs a lone pair from another molecule to complete the stable group of one of its atoms (electron acceptor). • Lewis Base: Contains a lone pair which can be used to complete the stable group of another atom (electron donor).

Allylation/ Crotylation Reactions Syn-Crotyl
Allylation/ Crotylation Reactions 1,3-sigmatropic shift
Allylation/ Crotylation Reactions Anti-Crotyl
Type I Reagents • E/Z ratio determines Syn/Anti ratio • Zimmerman-Traxler transition state • B, Al and some Sn reagents
Type II Reagents • Syn selective (independent of E/Z ratio) • Open-chain transition state • Usually require lewis acid activation • Si, Ti and some Sn reagents
