摘要

The copper-catalyzed, highly enantioselective alkyl and aryl/azolation of alkenes is reported. The employment of the chiral carbazole-based bisoxazoline (Cbzbox) ligand is critical to the success of this chemistry. Anionic tridentate ligands improve the reducibility of copper complexes, facilitating alkyl/aryl radical generation and providing good enantiocontrol in the azolation. The three-component coupling reactions feature mild reaction conditions and tolerate broad range of functional groups. This strategy allows straightforward introduction of valuable azole functionalities into a elaborated molecular system through direct C-H functionalization.
