Synthesis of γ-, δ-, and ε-lactams by asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of N-(tert-butylsulfinyl)iminoesters

Highly enantiomerically enriched γ- and δ-lactams have been prepared by a simple and very efficient procedure that involves the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of N-(tert-butylsulfinyl)iminoesters followed by desulfinylation of the nitrogen atom and spo

N-heterocyclic carbene and Bronsted acid cooperative catalysis: Asymmetric synthesis of trans -γ-Lactams

An efficient enantioselective approach to form trans-γ-lactams in up to 99% yield, 93% ee, and >20/1 dr using unactivated imines has been developed. The cyclohexyl-substituted azolium and the weak base sodium o-chlorobenzoate are most suitable for this tr
