Abstract

A new and highly stereoselective cascade reaction between isocyanoacetate esters and α-hydroxy and α-amino ketones has been developed. A cinchona alkaloid derived aminophosphine/silver(I) catalyst complex promoted the reaction and enabled the ready synthesis of fused bicyclic γ-lactone and γ-lactam oxazolines with high enantiocontrol (up to 99% ee).
