Abstract

Rhodium-catalyzed regio- and enantioselective coupling of tetrazoles with allenes are reported. Asymmetric construction of tertiary and quaternary allylic C–N bonds were achieved using a Rh(I)/JoSPOphos catalyst. This method permits the atom-economic synthesis of various valuable N2-allylic tetrazoles.
