Unless otherwise indicated, all reactions were performed on a 0.3 mmol scale at 0.1 M for 20 h at 23 °C using 2.5% 20 and 5.5% ligand L4 or 10% dppe; the ee values were determined by chiral HPLC.
The yields were isolated yields.
The ee values was determined by the analysis of its derivative by chiral GC.
The [α]D has the same sign as reported for the R configuration.35
