Published: June 2020

Highly enantioselective Friedel-Crafts alkylation of pyrroles with 2-enoyl-pyridine -oxides in water/chloroform (10:1) was developed under catalysis of Lewis acid. The Friedel-Crafts alkylation products can be obtained in high yields and excellent enantioselectivities. Moreover, several control experiments were carried out to study the reaction mechanism.
