Abstract

Abstract: Reported is the asymmetric propargylic substitution (APS) reaction of 5 H ‐thiazol‐4‐ones using a Cu/Zn dual metal catalytic system and the APS reaction of 5 H ‐oxazol‐4‐ones using a Cu/Ti catalytic system. These reactions furnish functional‐group‐rich, terminal‐alkyne‐containing products with two vicinal stereocenters in high yields and with good to excellent diastereo‐ and enantioselectivities. This study demonstrates the use of dual metal catalytic systems as a viable approach to improve the selectivity profiles of the copper‐catalyzed APS reactions.
