Ring-Opening Allylation of Semicyclic N,O-Acetals Catalyzed by a Lewis Acid

Abstract
Ring-opening allylation of semicyclic N,O-acetals with allylic silanes is effectively catalyzed by a Lewis acid showing high diastereoselectivities. The synthetic utility of this method has been demonstrated in a stereoselective synthesis of an antimalarial agent, isofebrifugine.
