Abstract:
A practical and highly stereoselective iron‐catalyzed cross‐coupling reaction of stereodefined enol carbamates and Grignard reagents to yield tri‐ and tetrasubstituted acrylates is reported. A facile method for the stereoselective generation of these enol carbamates has also been developed.
