Wilsily, Ashraf;Fillion, Eric published 《Asymmetric Synthesis of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives Having an All-Carbon α-Quaternary Center through Cu-Catalyzed 1,4-Addition of Dialkylzinc Reagents to 2-Aryl Acetate Derivatives》. The research results were published in《Organic Letters》 in 2008.Name: (11bS)-2,6-Dimethyl-N,N-bis(1-phenylethyl)dinaphtho[2,1-d:1′,2′-f][1,3,2]dioxaphosphepin-4-amine The article conveys some information:
The asym. synthesis of carboxylic acid derivatives having an all-carbon α-quaternary center, e.g. I, has been achieved via copper-catalyzed 1,4-addition of dialkylzinc reagents to aryl acetate derivatives, e.g. II, in the presence of phosphoramidite ligand. High isolated yields and enantioselectivities were obtained. It was demonstrated that the Meldrum’s acid and ester moieties present on the all-carbon quaternary center allow for a wide variety of subsequent transformations, leading to the expedient preparation of succinimides, e.g. III, succinate esters and succinic acids, γ-butyrolactones, and β-amino acid derivatives(11bS)-2,6-Dimethyl-N,N-bis(1-phenylethyl)dinaphtho[2,1-d:1′,2′-f][1,3,2]dioxaphosphepin-4-amine (cas: 201732-49-2) were involved in the experimental procedure.

At present, the synthesis of new chiral phosphines designed specifically for nucleophilic organocatalysis remains a significant challenge.Name: (11bS)-2,6-Dimethyl-N,N-bis(1-phenylethyl)dinaphtho[2,1-d:1′,2′-f][1,3,2]dioxaphosphepin-4-amine
