The synthesis of a range of imidazolinium salts derived from acyclic 1,2-diamines, and an evaluation of the reactivity and asymmetric induction of the corresponding NHCs as catalysts for the asymmetric synthesis of beta-lactams, is reported. An N-methyl-substituted NHC derived from (1R,2R)-1,2-diphenylethanediamine shows optimal reactivity and enantioselectivity in this series, in contrast to that observed with NHCs derived from (1R,2R)-cyclohexane-1,2-diamine.

The synthesis of a range of C-2-symmetric imidazolinium salts from (1R,2R)-cyclohexane-1,2-diamine, and an evaluation of the reactivity and asymmetric induction of the derived NHCs as catalysts for the asymmetric synthesis of beta-lactams, is reported. In this series, optimal enantioselectivity (up to 70% ee) is observed using N-benzyl or N-1-naphthylmethyl-substituted NHCs, consistent with a chiral relay effect operating to dictate the stereochemical outcome of this reaction.

N-Heterocyclic carbenes promote the formal [2+2] cycloaddition of ketenes with N-tosyl imines to give the corresponding β-lactams in good to excellent isolated yields; chiral NHCs give β-lactams in high e.e. after crystallisation.
