Abstract
An efficient method for the synthesis of homoallylic alcohols with high enantioselectivities and anti-diastereoselectivities via an In(III)-catalyzed intermolecular glyoxylate-ene reaction has been developed. The geometrical isomers of alkenes were shown to have different reactivities. Only the isomers of the alkenes having a proton β-cis to the substituent reacted in this catalytic system.
