✦ Synopsis
Indium-mediated allylation reactions of a-ketoimides derived from Oppolzer's sultam were accomplished in aqueous THF in good yields and excellent diastereomeric excesses. It could be a useful method for the preparation of enantiopure t-a-hydroxy acids. When the substituent of a-ketoimides was changed from phenyl to thiophenyl or furyl group, diastereoselectivity decreased in comparison to N-phenyl derivatives, but changing solvent to aqueous ethanol provided improved levels of diastereoselectivity.
