| A route has been developed for the synthesis of chiral lactams utilizing a [3+2] annulation reaction involving chiral alpha-siloxy allylsilanes 1 and chlorosulfonyl isocyanate (CSI). Chiral alpha-siloxy allylsilanes are derived from asymmetric reduction of acylsilanes using a chiral lithium amide, affording allylsilanes in high enantiopurity. The subsequent annulation process exhibits a high degree of stereoselectivity affording only lactams 2, in most cases, as one diastereomer. The lactams synthesized using this methodology also possess latent functionality for further synthetic manipulation via N-acyl imminium ion intermediates. |
