An efficient enantioselective approach to form trans-γ-lactams in up to 99% yield, 93% ee, and >20/1 dr using unactivated imines has been developed. The cyclohexyl-substituted azolium and the weak base sodium o-chlorobenzoate are most suitable for this transformation. Notably, the process involves cooperative catalysis by an N-heterocyclic carbene and a Brønsted acid.
已开发出一种高效的对映选择性方法,可使用未活化的亚胺以高达 99%的收率、93%的对映体过量和>20/1 的 dr 形成反式-γ-内酰胺。环己基取代的唑鎓盐和弱碱邻氯苯甲酸钠对这种转化最适用。值得注意的是,该过程涉及 N-杂环卡宾和布朗斯台德酸的协同催化。
