A new access to enantiopure 3-phthalimido-4-amino-5-(1-hydroxyalkyl) 1,5-dihydropyrrol-2-ones has been developed from 1,3-azadienes. Stereoselective Lewis acid catalyzed addition of a cyano group to an azadiene, followed by intramolecular ring closure, in a four-step one-pot synthesis, results in the formation of γ-lactams in satisfactory yields.
