Protocols for the stereodefined formation of α,α-disubstituted enolates of pseudoephedrine amides are presented followed by the implementation of these in diastereoselective alkylation reactions. Direct alkylation of α,α-disubstituted pseudoephedrine amide substrates is demonstrated to be both efficient and diastereoselective across a range of substrates, as exemplified by alkylation of the diastereomeric pseudoephedrine α-methylbutyramides, where both substrates are found to undergo stereospecific replacement of the α-C-H bond with α-C-alkyl, with retention of stereochemistry. This is shown to arise by sequential stereospecific enolization and alkylation reactions, with the alkyl halide attacking a common π-face of the E- and Z-enolates, proposed to be opposite the pseudoephedrine alkoxide side chain. Pseudoephedrine α-phenylbutyramides are found to undergo highly stereoselective but not stereospecific α-alkylation reactions, which evidence suggests is due to facile enolate isomerization. Also, we show that α,α-disubstituted pseudoephedrine amide enolates can be generated in a highly stereocontrolled fashion by conjugate addition of an alkyllithium reagent to the s-cis-conformer of an α-alkyl-α,β-unsaturated pseudoephedrine amide, providing α,α-disubstituted enolate substrates that undergo alkylation in the same sense as those formed by direct deprotonation. Methods are presented to transform the α-quaternary pseudoephedrine amide products into optically active carboxylic acids, ketones, primary alcohols, and aldehydes. Copyright
