Palladium(0) catalyzed alkylation of (4S)-1-chloropent-2-en-4-ol 7a by the anion of N-(diphenylmethyleneamino)acetonitrile 2, followed by SN’ cyclization under Mitsunobu conditions (DEAD, Me3P), produced diastereoselectively the (1S,2S)-1-amino-2-(prop-1-enyl) cyclopropanecarbonitrile 9 (de = 88%), a suitable precursor of asymmetric ACCs.
