48. In acetonitrile, which is the solvent of choice for Cu(II)-catalyzed conjugate additions of carbamates (see ref 13b), the asymmetric reaction did not proceed. THF was also found to be ineffective (<5% conversion after 2 days). Diethyl ether generally showed results comparable to those attained in methylene chloride, although in certain instances the enantioselectivity was essentially perfect (for example, product 11a 92% yield, ≥99% ee; 11b, 95% yield, ≥99% ee).

51. At the present stage, proposals for consistent catalytic cycle and transitionstate models seem premature. One reviewer has suggested an eight-membered transition state involving copper coordination.
