We report an enantioselective palladium-catalyzed trans -hydroalkoxylation of propargylic amines with a trifluoroacetaldehyde-derived tether to build chiral oxazolidines. Diastereoselective hydrogenation using a heterogeneous palladium catalyst then gave access to protected benzylic amino alcohols in 45-87% yields and 84-94% ee values. Hydroalkoxylation of the alkynes required a catalytic amount of aryl iodide, highlighting the counterintuitive key role played by a putative Pd(II)/ArI oxidative addition complex to promote oxypalladation/protodemetalation.
