Group 3-15 metal chlorides (Lewis acids) were classified on the basis of activity and aldehyde- and aldimine-selectivity in an addition reaction of a silyl enol ether. Based on the experimental results, metal chlorides (Lewis acids) were classified as follows: A
Allyl chlorides tethered to an N-aryl moiety readily undergo InCl(3)-catalyzed Friedel-Crafts reactions to furnish highly enantiomerically enriched 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines with good yields and excellent diastereoselectivity.
