Abstract
The NHC-catalyzed desymmetrization of cyclic-1,3-diketones allowing the enantioselective construction of tricyclic β-lactones with five contiguous stereocenters, including two quaternary stereocenters, has been developed. The mild and operationally simple addition of α-bromoenals to cyclopentane-1,3-diketone derivatives proceeds via the initial formation of chiral α,β-unsaturated acylazolium intermediates and culminates in a cascade reaction, following the Michael-aldol-lactonization pathway to deliver the β-lactone derivatives in moderate to good yields and excellent selectivity. © 2020 American Chemical Society.
