Abstract
A direct enantioselective conjugate addition of 2-alkylpyridines enables efficient construction of complex functionalized pyridinyl scaffolds with contiguous stereocenters. This method leverages chiral lithium amides as traceless stereodirecting auxiliaries, operating through defined aggregation of organolithium intermediates to achieve excellent enantio- and diastereocontrol.
