A facile ZrCl4-catalyzed direct allylation of the p-methoxyphenyl-alkyl/glycosyl carbinols at room temperature, and the conversion of the derived aryl-glycosyl-alkenes into hitherto unknown C-linked carbo-beta2-/gamma2-/delta2-amino acids is reported.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
