title: An efficient approach to the stereocontrolled synthesis of enamides.
abstract: [reaction: see text] A fast, flexible, and efficient approach for the stereocontrolled synthesis of enamides has been developed starting from lactams and amides through the use of imides. This new approach provides access to enamide systems not easily or currently accessible through other approaches.
