Abstract: The separation of enantiomeric substrates using a parallel kinetic resolution is becoming increasingly popular.1 In recent years, attention has focussed on the use of traditional chiral auxiliaries as complementary quasi-enantiomeric resolving agents. 2 In particular, Davies, 3 has elegantly shown the parallel kinetic resolution of the racemic enone (rac)-1 using a pair of quasi-enantiomeric lithium amides (S)-2 and (R)-3 to give the corresponding syn,syn,anti-adducts 4 and 5 with near perfect levels of complementary stereocontrol (Scheme 1).
