Abstract
A N-heterocyclic carbene catalyzed formal [3 + 2] annulation of enals with 2-aminoacrylates provides various γ-lactam derivatives in good yields with excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivities. In this process, two consecutive stereocenters and a quaternary carbon center are constructed.
