An efficient and practical method for the synthesis of α,α-disubstituted six-membered lactones was developed. Enantioselective construction of quaternary carbon centers by utilizing Pd-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation proved its feasibility.

α,β-Unsaturated esters have been employed as substrates in iridium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation. Full conversions and good to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99 % ee) were obtained for a broad range of substrates with both aromatic- and aliphatic substituents on the prochiral carbon. The hydrogenated products are highly useful as building blocks in the synthesis of a variety of natural products and pharmaceuticals. Asymmetric hydrogenation: A variety of α,β-unsaturated esters were hydrogenated with high enantioselectivities (see scheme). The hydrogenated products have been used in synthetic transformations as well as in formal total syntheses. Copyright
