Abstract
Unsaturated keto-lactams undergo sequential conjugate reduction-aldol cyclization on treatment with SmI 2 to give syn-spirocyclic pyrrolidinones and piperidinones containing vicinal, fully substituted stereocenters with complete diastereocontrol. The substituent on nitrogen and the lactam ring size have a marked impact on the efficiency of the spirocyclization.
