We report the palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation of 1,4-diazepan-5-ones. This reaction proceeds smoothly to give <i>gem</i>-disubstituted diazepanone heterocycles bearing various functional groups in up to >99% yield and up to 95% ee. An electron-rich <i>p</i>-anisoyl lactam protecting group and the use of a nonpolar solvent proved crucial to obtaining high enantioselectivity in most cases. Additionally, we demonstrate the use of our methodology in the synthesis of a <i>gem</i>-di ...[more]
