The lithium (Z)-enolate generated from the propanamide of (S)-4-benzyl-2,2,5,5-tetramethyloxazolidine undergoes highly lk-1,4/anti-selective Michael additions to alpha,beta-unsaturated ester and amide accepters. However, only poor selectivities result when either the lithium (Z)enolates of an oxazolidine methoxyacetamide derivative or the oxazolidine alpha,beta-unsaturated amide accepters are used. The observed high chiral inductions in the former cases are based on the facts that syn-conformation of the enolate is involved in the transition state where the enolate and oxazolidine planes are coplanar, and that the diastereoface remote from the 4-shielding substituent of the auxiliary is open for the attack of acceptor molecules.
