Özet

We describe the first [2+2] cycloaddition between a keteniminium salt and an alkene followed by a nucleophilic addition on the in situ generated cyclobuteniminium salts. This one-pot sequence enables the formation of quaternary centers with high level of stereoselectivity and is largely applicable to the synthesis of highly strained intermediates as well as precursor for spirohydantoïns. Moreover, DFT calculations support deuterated experiments showing that no spontaneous iminium–enamine tautomerization can exist during the [2+2] cycloaddition process.
