Tetrasubstituted pyrroles have been synthesized via the cross-dehydrogenative coupling between enamino esters and acetone. Silver carbonate proved to be an effective oxidant, and no transition metal catalyst is necessary.

First, test the water! In the presence of a chiral Lewis base catalyst 2, the supposedly moisture-unfriendly reduction system with trichlorosilane was found to be highly efficient and enantioselective when using water as an additive. For the first time, this method enables the reduction of a broad range of N-alkyl β-enamino esters 1 to give N-alkyl β-amino esters 3 in good to high yields and with excellent enantioselectivities (see scheme).
