Rapid, scalable assembly of stereochemically rich, mono- and bicyclic acyl sultams

Org Lett. 2014 Jan 3;16(1):82-5. doi: 10.1021/ol403070w. Epub 2013 Dec 6.

Abstract

A one-pot, sequential protocol is reported that involves complementary ambiphile pairing (CAP) of a vinyl sulfonamide with a variety of unprotected amino acids via aza-Michael addition and subsequent intramolecular amidation. The method generates diverse, sp(3)-rich mono- and bicyclic acyl sultams in a highly scalable manner. Modular pairing of stereochemically rich building blocks allows quick access to all possible isomers. Extension to include one-pot, sequential 3-, 4-, and 5-multicomponent protocols is also discussed.
