Asymmetric α-selective allylation of amide unit of maleimides and alkenyloxindoles by dual-functional InIII/N,N'-dioxide complex

Chiral γ-hydroxy-γ-lactams were versatile building blocks for the synthesis of many important bioactive compounds. Herein, we disclosed a regio- and enantioselective direct α-selective allylation of amide moiety of maleimides with...
