Herein, we report an enantioselective vinylation of α-substituted γ-lactams that forges quaternary centers in up to 59% yield with 94% ee. The use of canonically inactive vinyl chloride electrophiles afforded the highest yields and levels of stereoselectivity, and a range of trisubstituted vinyl chlorides were found to be proficient in promoting this transformation. These stereogenic products could be further elaborated to functionally rich scaffolds, thereby highlighting the synthetic utility o ...[more]
