Stereoselective gamma-lactam synthesis via palladium-catalysed intramolecular allylation.
A novel route to the synthesis of 3-(tolylsulfonyl)-4,5-cis-disubstituted gamma-lactams using a diastereoselective palladium-catalysed intramolecular allylation of amino acid-derived allylic carbonates has been developed.
