A direct method to obtain α-alkylidene β-oxo amides by the palladium-catalyzed carbonylation of α-chloro ketones in the presence of aromatic imines has been described. The methodology can be applied to a variety of C-aryl imines bearing N-aryl or N-alkyl substituents. The entire process is highly stereoselective and affords the α-alkylidene β-oxo amides only as (Z) isomers. A mechanistic hypothesis involving an acyl-β-lactam intermediate has also been proposed.

Abstract
A direct method to obtain α-alkylidene β-oxo amides by the palladium-catalyzed carbonylation of α-chloro ketones in the presence of aromatic imines has been described. The methodology can be applied to a variety of C-aryl imines bearing N-aryl or N-alkyl substituents. The entire process is highly stereoselective and affords the α-alkylidene β-oxo amides only as (Z) isomers. A mechanistic hypothesis involving an acyl-β-lactam intermediate has also been proposed.File in questo prodotto:
