Asymmetric conjugate addition of Grignard reagents in the presence of tertiary amines to α,β-unsaturated amides derived from (S)-2-(1-hydroxy-1-methylethyl)pyrrolidine or (S)-prolinol

Abstract
In the presence of tertiary amines, diastereoselective conjugate addition of Grignard reagents to α,β-unsaturated amides affords 3-substituted carboxylic acids of high enantiomeric excess (up to 89% e.e.).
