Abstract
A highly stereoselective vinylogous Mukaiyama Michael reaction (VMMR) leading to α-keto phosphonate-containing γ-butenolides with two stereogenic centers is described. The presented transformation is catalyzed by a combination of a commercially available C2 -symmetric bisoxazoline (BOX) ligand and a copper salt and tolerates a variety of nucleophiles and electrophiles. The stereoselectivities of the reactions are good to excellent and the products are obtained in moderate to high yields.
