Asymmetric Alkylation of N‐Sulfonylbenzamides with Vinyl Ethers via C—H Bond Activation Catalyzed by Hydroxoiridium/Chiral Diene Complexes.

Asymmetric alkylation of N-sulfonylbenzamides with vinyl ethers via a directed C–H bond activation gave high yields of the corresponding addition products with high branch- and enantioselectivity.
