Palladium-Catalyzed Asymmetric Conjugate Addition of Arylboronic Acids to α,β-Unsaturated Lactams: Enantioselective Construction of All-Carbon Quaternary Stereocenters in Saturated Nitrogen-Containing Heterocycles.


ABSTRACT: Stereogenic nitrogen-containing heterocycles are ubiquitous in natural products and pharmaceutical compounds, but methods for their enantioselective construction have remained elusive. We report a general method for the asymmetric conjugate addition of arylboronic acids to β-alkyl/aryl α,β-unsaturated lactams that affords chiral β,β-disubstituted lactams. The transformation is operationally simple and air- and moisture-tolerant and uses a commercially available (S)-t-Bu-PyOx ligand. The method is high-yielding (up to 95% yield) and enantioselective (up to 97% ee) for a wide range of arylboronic acids and α,β-unsaturated lactams, including those with different ring sizes.
