title: Metal free stereoselective synthesis of functionalized enamides.
abstract: An efficient and expeditious DABCO-mediated synthesis of functionalized enamides from alkenes is delineated. The reaction proceeds through an unprecedented cascade involving an Aza-Michael addition/α-bromination/elimination and a Morita-Baylis-Hillman type reaction to generate functionalized enamides in a regio- & stereoselective fashion.
