Abstract

The first catalytic enantioselective amination of silylketene acetals with (N-arylsulfonylimino)phenyliodinanes is described. The reaction of silylketene acetals derived from methyl phenylacetates with [N-(2-nitrophenylsulfonyl)imino]phenyliodinane (NsN = IPh) under the catalysis of dirhodium(II) tetrakis[N-tetrachlorophthaloyl-(S)-tert-leucinate], Rh2(S-TCPTTL)4, proceeds in benzene at room temperature to give N-(2-nitrophenylsulfonyl)phenylglycine derivatives in high yields and with enantioselectivities of up to 99% ee.
