Synthesis of alpha,beta-unsaturated gamma-lactams via asymmetric iridium-catalysed allylic substitution.
Syntheses of alpha,beta-unsaturated gamma-lactams are described that are based on ring-closing metathesis in combination with enantioselective Ir-catalysed allylic amination using N-Boc-N-(but-2-enoyl)-amine as a pronucleophile. As an example application, the synthesis of a Baclofen analogue is presented.
