Enantioselective Cycloadditions with α,β-Disubstituted Acrylimides
摘要:
The use of N-H imide templates provides a solution to the problem of rotamer control in Lewis acid catalyzed reactions of α,β-disubstituted acryloyl imides. Reactions proceed through the s-cis rotamer and with improved reactivity because A(1,3) strain is avoided. Enantioselective nitrone, nitrile oxide, and Diels-Alder cycloadditions demonstrate the principle.
