Cyclic α-quaternary carbon stereocenters were prepared from biselectrophillic substrates and an easily prepared chiral bicyclic sulfonyl lactam. This was achieved in two steps by spiroalkylation, employing biphasic reaction conditions with a phase-transfer catalyst, followed by reduction and alkylation with a series of alkyl halide electrophiles. The products of this method were isolated in good yields with with high levels of diastereoselectivity. This methodology was employed in the enantioselective total synthesis of (R)-puraquinonic acid (1) for a late-stage installation of the α-quaternary carbon stereocenter. This enabled the shortest synthesis of 1 to date, an eight-pot sequence providing an overall yield of 14%.
Dynamic kinetic asymmetric [3 + 2] annulation reactions of aminocyclopropanes

We report the first example of a dynamic kinetic asymmetric [3 + 2] annulation reaction of aminocyclopropanes with both enol ethers and aldehydes. Using a Cu catalyst and a commercially available bisoxazoline ligand, cyclopentyl- and tetrahydrofurylamines were obtained in 69-99% yield and up to a 98:2 enantiomeric ratio using the same reaction conditions. The method gives access to important enantio-enriched nitrogen building blocks for the synthesis of bioactive compounds.
