The first conjugate addition reaction of organocuprates to N-enoyl oxazolidinone where a N-protected γ-nitrogen atom and an α-methyl group are present into α, β-unsaturated system is described. This reaction gave anti-products in moderate yields and high diastereomeric ratios. The anti-products have two contiguous stereogenic centers, one formed by the conjugate addition reaction and the other by a diastereoselective protonation reaction. The removal of chiral oxazolidinone moiety and N-deprotection of amino group furnished chiral α, β-disubstituted γ-amino acids.

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
Efficient preparation of α,α-dialkyl-α-(phenylselanyl) acetates and α,β-unsaturated esters from the corresponding α,α-dialkyl-α-cyanoacetates by a lithium naphthalenide induced reductive selenenylation process

An array of α,α-dialkyl-α-(phenylselanyl)acetates has been synthesized very efficiently from readily available α,α- dialkyl-α-cyanoacetates, by use of lithium naphthalenide induced reductive α-selenenylation as a key operation. Moreover, the selanyl esters thus generated in situ could be converted further, in a one-pot treatment with hydrogen peroxide and acetic acid, into the corresponding α,β- unsaturated esters in moderate to high yields. The C=C bond formation was highly regio- and/or diastereoselective in some cases. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.
