We describe herein a highly regio- and enantioselective Pd-catalyzed Heck arylation of unactivated trisubstituted acyclic olefins to provide all-carbon quaternary stereogenic centers. Chiral N,N ligands of the pyrimidine- and pyrazino-oxazoline class were developed for that purpose, providing the desired products in good to high yields with enantiomeric ratios up to >99:1. Both linear and branched substituents on the olefins were well-tolerated. The potential of this new method is demonstrated by the straightforward synthesis of several O-methyl lactols and lactones containing quaternary stereocenters, together with a concise enantioselective total synthesis of the calcium channel blocker verapamil.

Regiospecific spiroalkylation of the selectively generated enolate arising from the 1,4-addition of lithium dimethylcuprate to 3-methylcyclohex-2-en-1-one allows an efficient preparation of spiroketones, including a key intermediate for the synthesis of (+/-)-α-Chamigrene.
