13. 4-(R)-BINAP-catalyzed conditions has been reported to give 4 in a high enentioselectivity. See, Ref. 3. In the reaction of 1a with 2a, (S,S)-Chiraphos showed a slight enantioselectivity (20% ee). Other enoyl compounds such as, ester 2c and amide 2d, afforded unsatisfactory results (<20% ee) by the use of other chiral ligands.
