This paper describes an efficient method for constructing cyclic β-amino acids bearing quaternary stereocenters. NaHMDS-promoted asymmetric α-alkylation was employed to obtain the key intermediates with quaternary stereogenic centers, which were subsequently reduced by NaBH4 in 10% methanol in THF, with high yields and high diastereoselectivities. By removing the allyl ester group and the chiral auxiliary, the corresponding cyclic β-amino acid hydrochlorides were finally obtained.

A highly efficient and enantioselective approach to the synthesis of functionalized benzofuran-3(2H)-ones is presented. It proceeds via an intramolecular Stetter reaction using β,β-disubstituted Michael acceptors in the construction of five-membered rings with fully-substituted quaternary stereogenic centers and is promoted by terpene-derived triazolium salts. As a result, a series of chiral 2,2-disubstituted benzofuran-3(2H)-one derivatives with linear, branched, and cyclic aliphatic substitutions on the quaternary stereogenic center were obtained in high yields and with excellent enantioselectivities of up to 99% ee.

To date, enantiomerically enriched molecules containing gem(1,1)-diaryl containing tertiary or quaternary stereogenic centers have been readily accessed by transition metal-catalyzed enantioselective or stereoconvergent aryl transfer reactions.
