Fig. 4. Substrate scope with respect to nucleophiles.
Reactions were performed on a 0.2 mmol scale in THF (2 mL) with 5 mol% Cu(I), 10 mol% L5, and 20 mol% Mg(OtBu)2. Yield is that of an isolated product. The ee values were determined by HPLC analysis, the d.r. values were determined by 1H NMR analysis of the crude reaction mixture. aCu(CH3CN)4BF4 (15 mol%), L5 (30 mol%), and Mg(OtBu)2 (50 mol%) were used. See SI for experimental details.
