Abstract
Multiple contiguous chiral centers were constructed in one pot using three types of multistep reactions initiated with the Michael addition of N-benzyl-2(R)-methoxy-(+)-10-bornylamide to alpha,beta-unsaturated esters, i.e., asymmetric Michael-aldol reaction, double Michael addition, and double Michael-aldol reaction. The chiral 2-methoxy-10-bornyl group as well as the benzyl group on the amino group of the products in the Michael-aldol reaction could be easily cleaved by treatment with NIS (4 equiv), and beta-amino esters with multiple contiguous chiral centers were obtained in good yield. As an application, the beta-amino-beta'-hydroxy ester obtained in the asymmetric Michael-aldol reaction was converted to the beta-lactam derivative in good yield.
