The enantioselective desymmetrizing C-H activation of α-gem-dialkyl acyclic amides remains challenging because the availability of four chemically identical unbiased methylene C(sp3)-H bonds and increased rotational freedoms of the acyclic systems add tremendous difficulties for chemo- and stereocontrol. We have developed a method for the synthesis of acyclic aliphatic amides with α,β-contiguous stereogenic centers via PdII-catalyzed asymmetric arylation of unbiased methylene C(sp3)-H, in good yields and with high levels of enantio-, chemo- and diastereosel
