An efficient method for the enantioselective construction of β-substituted β-vinylglycinol derivatives through palladium-catalyzed decarboxylative cycloaddition of vinylethylene carbonates with isocyanates was developed. By using a palladium complex generated in situ from [Pd2 (dba)3]⋅CHCl3 (dba=dibenzylideneacetone) and (S)-Segphos as a catalyst under mild reaction conditions, the process provided 4-substituted-4-vinyloxazolidin-2-ones in high yields with a high level of enantioselectivity. The stereochemical outcome of the reaction was explained by DFT calculations and the synthetic utility of the process was demonstrated by the gram-scale transformation and formal synthesis of MK-0731 as a kinesin spindle protein inhibitor.
