TL;DR

The procedure tolerates a wide range of substrates to generate optically active pyrazolones with vinyl-substituted quaternary stereocenters and thermodynamically unstable (Z)-enone derivatives are obtained.

Abstract

Highly selective: the title reaction is achieved with high enantiomeric and geometric control and thermodynamically unstable (Z)-enone derivatives are obtained as the major products. The procedure tolerates a wide range of substrates to generate optically active pyrazolones with vinyl-substituted quaternary stereocenters.
