Enantioselective Organocatalytic Multicomponent Synthesis of 2,6-Diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octanones
Résumé
The title reaction of β-ketoamides, acrolein, and aminophenols, catalyzed by a bifunctional thiourea-tertiary amine organocatalyst, enables the preparation of an enantioenriched diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octanone (2,6-DABCO) scaffold. The chemoselective reaction sequence installs five new bonds and three stereocenters, two of which are contiguous tetrasubstituted centers, with excellent yields and high levels of stereocontrol.
