38. The opposite sense of absolute stereochemistry observed with sulfonate-containing Cu complexes derived from 2 and 3a-c (entries 2-5, Table 1), vs those obtained through phenoxy-based 1 (entry 1) or monodentate 4 (entry 6), might be due to their unique stereochemical characteristics. Structural studies indicate that, unlike the bridging aryloxide in 1 or monodentate carbenes such as those obtained via 4 and 5, the sulfonate in such chiral Cu complexes is oriented syn to the neighboring Ph group of the NHC backbone.

49. Preliminary studies indicate that, under the same conditions, NHC-Cu-catalyzed addition of nonsilyl-containing β-vinylaluminum reagents proceeds with equal efficiency but lower enantioselectivity (e.g., 19 in 65:35 er) and with the same sense of absolute stereochemistry. Investigations regarding identification of catalysts and conditions that promote such processes with high efficiency and enantioselectivity are in progress and will be reported in due course.

53. Treatment of the Li-enolate derived from 22 with the appropriately substituted benzyl bromide leads to <2% of the desired alkylation product. In contrast, when benzyl bromide is used, the desired product is obtained in 74% yield (>20:1 dr). The above findings suggest that subtle structural alterations of the electrophile can inhibit reaction of the sterically congested enolate. The stereochemical identity of the alkylation product (>98% dr) is projected on the basis of steric factors and has not been rigorously determined.
