Published: July 2017

Mixing of acryloylchloride, dienone 2, N,N-diisopropylethylamine with chiral organocatalyst 5a, which could simultaneously act as Brønsted and Lewis base catalysts, led to a one-pot amidation/Rauhut-Currier sequence, affording α-methylidene-γ-lactams 4. Catalyst 5a could be recovered and reused by acid/base extraction without any loss of catalytic activity in the stepwise protocol.
