Abstract
Highly diastereoselective carbometalation of oxa- and azabicyclic alkenes with arylzinc reagents has been achieved by using FeCl3 and novel ortho-phenylene diphosphine ligands (see scheme; E=electrophile). The carbozincation products are stable towards β-heteroatom elimination and can be trapped with various electrophiles.
